D. Kelley, then as now a Republican,
and who "is the oldest Congressman in
the Pennsylvania delegation, said in a
public letter : "No stone may mark the
spot whore my poor remains may finally
rest, hnt I mean that my children may
be able to vindicate my name by point
ing to the fact that Simon Cameron and
his confidential friends were ever hostile
to me." '
State elections were held on Mon

LooAN'sbill to place Grant on the ie

friend. Mr. Arthur, however, did not
forget him. but trave liiai an cilice, hav
ing nominated him one of the Commis
sioner's, Mr. Treseott-f of South Caro

mercial treaty with Mexico. It is a
haudy arrangement, for while Trescott,
who is abuiidaully competent, can at
tend to the diplomatic part of the busi
ness. Grant will bo given an opportun
ity of looking after and promoting his
Mexican railroad interests.
Tlie latent news from Ireland is de
void of any special interest. The coun
try is comparatively quiet and although
great fears were entertained two weeks
ago for the a.ifety of the crops, especial
ly the potato crop, owing to the heavy
and continuous rains, the weather took
a favorable change and the prospects
for an abundant harvest are excellent.
Mr. 1'ainell, though much broken down
by the (h ath of his younger sister, re
mains at his post in Parliament, and
Davitt, since his return irom this coun
try to the "old sod" has been busily en
gaged in counteracting the new move
ment of the Landlords' Association to
pet possession of the lands of evicted
tenants.
Ox Saturday last Congress had been
in session eight months two-thirds of
a year. In glancing back over its pro
ceedings one fails to discover anything
except liic toiuoetiag of schemes and
devising v ays and means to take the
large surplus out of the Treasury. Noth
ing has been done for the relisf of the
taxpayers, but everything for corrupt
jobs find reckless expenditures. It has
appropriated for the support of the gov
ernment during the present fiscal year
t'CO hltn-lf-1 U i'l hi.i'-'.'i-f'X miUvnta of
dollars, which is. seventy-five millions
more than were appropriated for the
same pmp"s-' last year, and about one
hundred millions more than for the ear
1SS0. The men, or most of the. me n
whose vo'es have dene this will ask their
constituents to sanction their votes by
their re-election. If this shall be done
It will simply show that the more the,
per.pl e are robbed and plundered by the
public servants they elect to protect
their best interests, the more they like
it,
Everybody remembers that when
Tilden was a candidate for President,
six years ago, a suit was instituted
against him by the Government, for po
litical effect of course, to recover from
bim what was alleged to be his arrears
of income tax, Mr. Tilden denied that
he owed the Government a copper, that
he had paid every farthing he was asked
to pay, ami lias continued to assert that
ground of defense against the suit up to
the present day. Ed. Pierrepont, who
was ore of Grant's numerous Attorney
Generals, Ins conducted the case od
part of the Government, and although
in some shape or form it has frequently
been before tho Courts, it is still undis
posed of. Mr. Tilden has frequently
been asked to compromise the case, but
he indiguantly refused to do so, as that
would be regarded as a virtual admission
that he owed something. A correspon
dence has just been published between
Mr. Folger, Secretary of the Treasury,
Brewster, tho Attorney General, and
Fierrepor.t, in regard to the trial or
abandonment of the case. Folger tells
rierrepont if the case ought to be tiied
he must take that step without further
delay ; but if he thinks he cannot make
a good case, lie must, in justice to Mr.
Tilden, abandon it. That t he govern
ment will get out of the scrape by a
square backdown does not admit of any
serious doubt. What will then become
of the army of Republican stump speak
ers who have been howling for six jears
and of Republican editors, who, during
the same teriod have been charging that
Samuel .1. Tilden had defrauded the
treasury by refusing to pay his income j
tax V l
If Beaver is certain of being elected
by a majority of fifty thousand, as he is
in the constant habit of boasting in his
speeches that he will be, why is he put
ting himself to the trouble of going from
one county to another in the eastern
part of the State and addressing meet
ings in his behalf ? If he was as certain
of his election as he wishes the people to
believe he is, the natural conclusion
would be that he would be content to
let the voters of the State register their
decree through the ballot-boxes without
any extravagant brag or bluster. It is
always a bad sign when a candidate for
office boasts loudly of his strength, and
is invariably regarded by men of his
own party as a forced confession of con
scious weakness. Xo good politician
ever does it any more than a prudent
military commander underestimates the
strength of the enemy, and issues a bul
letin in advance of a battle predicting
a decisive victory. Beaver, however,
don't expect one out of ten of his gap
ing hearers to believe that he is in earn
est in what he says. It is the way some
politicians have of attempting to infuse
confidence into men who feel that they
are fighting in a cbxraied and hopeless
cause.
"What a marked contrast there is in
this respect between Pattison and Beav
er. Pattison hasn't been traveling all
over the State exhibiting himself at
large gatherings of ieople ; he don't in
dulge in excessive talk and gabble, as
Beaver does, nor will lie consent, like
Beaver, to be interviewed by newspaper
reporters for the purpose of getting his
views and opinions before the people
through the- city daily press, While
Beaver has been on the go ever since he
was nominated, Pattison has stuck to
his r.tlice in Philadelphia, attending to
the important business lor which the
taxpayers of that city twice elected him.
If the people elect him Governor.he will,
as the Philadelphia Times remarks, "lay
down his pen in the Controller's office,
shut np his books, take a run up to Har
rWburg and begin there just as he began
in Philadelphia five years ago, and
thenceforth the atmosphere about the
Capitol will be very cold for Legislative
jrblers. Treasury plunderers, pardon
advocates f.jr Lallot thieves, and Bosses
generally."
Scarcely had the echoes of approval
with which the people of the whole
countiy received the President's disap
proval of the River and Harbor bill in
famy died away, before they were as
tounded by the news that the bill had
been pao:-ed over the veto in both branch
es by the necee.ary two-thirds vote.
The. veto message was sent to the House
late on "Wednesday afternoon of last
week, and on the following morning
when the House met, the first thing it
did was to take up the bill and pass it
by a vote of 122 yeas to o'J nays, 71 mem
bers being paired. The vote in each
house in favor of the grab of over eigh
teen millions of dollars was equally com
posed of Democrats and Republicans,
and the infamy therefore is pretty even
ly divided between the two political par
ties. There was an alliance formed be
tween the States of the West and Xorth
west, with the states reaching down to
the Gulf of Mexico, and the coalition
being reinforced by votes from the Mid
dle, Now England and Pacific coast
States, constituted a force that nothing
could resist. It is scarcely worth while
now to waste words ovei th'13 high hand
ed performance, and the only thing
that a person can do is to fold his arms
and wonder at the frightful magnitude
of the steal and the promptness with
which it was accomplished. An enor
mous surplus was in the treasury, and
Congressmen intent upon being elected
next November had succeeded in pet
ting millions of dollars voted into the
bill, to be expended for merely local
purposes in their several districts, in or
der to make themselves solid with their
constituent?. In view of all this, is it
any wonder that a combination of inter
ests was formed powerful enough to even
veto the veto itself ? Many, perhaps
most, of the members who perpetrated
this gigantic and. unparalleled outrage
upon the people will come before them
for judgment at the election in Novem
ber, and honest men will look with. in
terest to see how many of them will oe
permitted to again occupy the seats they
have dishonored and disgraced.
What will be the outcome of the
campaign in Virginia ? We have "no
opinion for the public eye," as General
Taylor said when a troublesome question
was propounded to him during his can
didacy for President in lis. The Vir
ginia campaign is at least peculiar in
one aspect. John S. Wise son of the
fiery aud impetuous Henry A. Wise, of
former days, was the first candidate
nominated for Congressman-at-Large by
the Mahone party. He i3 a chip of the
old block and makes a lively candidate,
having managed up to this time to be
encraged in one duel and several fist
f crhts. Then Parson John E. Massey,
the father of Virginia repudiation, but
who quarreled with Mahone last winter
announce'! himself a an independent
candidate to punish Mahone. Next1
the Democratic State committee met
and decid' d not to call a convention to
nominate a candidate which was sub
stantially an endorsement of Massey ;
and, lat, the nomination by the State
Commiteteo of the "straight-out" Re
publicans of Rev. J. M. Dawson, a no
ted colored Baptist preacher, well
known throughout the State. The only
excuse or palliation for the Democratic
Committee indirectly endorsing Massey
is that by doing so Mahone "s candidate
(Wise)raay be defeated; but itds the old
experiment of jumping out of the frying
pan into the fire, Massey is a Democrat,
and so is Wise; but Massey has never
renounced his repudiation heresy, and
whenever the Democracy of Virginia,
or any other State, dishonor themselves
by supporting any man of that stamp
for office, we feel ourselves, so far as
the result is concerned, in the condition
of the datkey down South who, having
heard a colored preacher at a camp
meeting declare that the narrow road in
a man's life led to d.-struetion and the
broad road to damnation, on being ask
ed which road he would choose, replied
that he thought he would "take to de
woods."
Ct NonKss adjourned sintil.it on Tues
day list, and great will be the rejoicing
thereat.
HEAVER AM THE SOLDIERS.
It seems that the Republican candi
date for Governor has offended some of
his party, and especially those who were
as good soldiers as himself. On trying
to maue political capital out of his mili
tary record, the falsity of some of his
pretensions are exposed by the Belle
fonte Watchman, au influential and re
sponsible newspaper published at his
own home. From this it appears that,
like many other politicians, Beaver is
"the soldier's friend' when he has an
axe to erind.
The Watchman says that until Beaver
beenme an anxious aspirant for the office
of Governor he would never have any
thing to do with the Grand Army of the
Republic. "As soon as he became an
aspirant for office ho rnaae application
and was admitted as a member, and a
number of gentlemen hereabouts, who
were original members, strongly suspec
ted at the time, that ho entered it for
no other purpose than to try to use it
for his own political advancement. The
suspicions that were aroused when he
was first taken into the order have been
verified, and the members of that organ
ization can know exactly why he enroll
ed mm sen as a memwr and took
the
pledges required bv its constitution. i
"That he has any particular claim on
the members of his old regiment, that '
would secure their pledge to vote for ;
him. few of them will admit. In the j tirry for the two latter crimes that they
service he was distant, autocratic and ; are not likely to be indulged in as freely
domineering toward his men ; since his ' as heretofore, but bribery, being less
return home hs has scarcely known or ! easily detected, will be practiced by Cam
iecognized them. For a number of j eron's henchmen to a greater extent
years he has been leader of the Republi- I than ever before known in the history of
1 can party in the eountv re?:gnized as '
such by his party at home and treated 1
as such bv officials abroad. His word
tins lupll locv In I Iio T.
and his request would have secured the i
appointment of any one he named to ;
any position he desired him to occupv. j
We ask, what has he done for his oid j
soldiers or for any soldier that would '
place them under obligations to him ;
now ? He has had the entire control of ;
the federal patronage now within tho j
county for the past four years. How
many soldiers has he put in position i
during that time ? With over fifty post '
offices, revenue offices and other places
to fill, not Gve of them are presided over !
uy soiuiers.
"The only soldiers we know of occu
pying official positions within the conn-
ty are David Glenn. A. V. Miller, Capt. !
Vanvalin and Colonel Stewart. Of
these. Miller got his position through i
the efforts of Ed. Blanohard. and Van- 1
valin was appointed before Beaver took
any part in politics. He may have ;
signed Glenn's applicat ion for place and ,
we believe he secured Stewart's appoint j
ment of jost master at the state college,
although to do si he was compelled to !
have removed a very estimable and de- '
serving lady, who had filled the place 1
for many years. Outside of these, can 1
any one point to a single soldier occu- 1
pying a paying position in Centre coun
ty V Beaver's asking it would have se
cured for Capt. Bayard the post office at
this place. Vet it-, the best paying of
fice in the county, is filled by Mr. John
Johnston, who solJiered less than the
writer, of this article, and that was
mighty little,.
'Since his return from the army the
Democrats have had upon their ticket a
number of soldleis, and their comieti
tors have mostly been civilians. In not
a single instance did he vote for one of
them. Last fall the Republicans of the
county hail two candidates for commis
sioners the one a soldier, the other a
civilian, and it is a notorious fact that
Gen. Beaver's efforts and sympathies
were thrown against the soldier, Camp
bell, a member of his own old regiment,
the 14StIi. and in favor of Mr. Rankin,
who remained at home.
"Such has been Mr. Beaver's record
of friendship for the support of soldiers
here at home. The soldiers of the court-
ty know it, the people know it, and
when we now hear that a large number
of Republican soldiers positively refuse
to sign a pledge to vote for him it is
neither strange nor unexpected, InTact
it would be exceedingly strange if it
were otherwise."
The Evils of Cameronism. It is
admitted that the evils of political man-
i agement of which the Republicans op
I posed to Don Cameron's erso:ial rule
j complain, are in no way ameliorated by
j the ticket nominated at Harrisburg.
j Tiiose evils consist in the u.-e of the
j federal and the state patronage for Don
I Cameron's personal uses in State and
j National politics, and who uphold the
1 Cameron ring ; the prevention of the
1 civil service reform ; the use of the par
i don board as an instrument of machine
politics ; and the continuance of Don
Cameron in the United States Senate to
I the exclusion of better men. If the tic
1 ket has been selected to suit Cameron,
1 it has been selected to maintain these
1 evils. The Republicans of the .Stateare
I asked to support it because it represents
j t lie machine interest's, otherwise the
! machine, which had control of the Con
i vention, would have m'minated some
! other ticket. If Beaver is elected lie
1 will reappoint Quay secretary of the
j commonwealth, and will appoint an at-
tovney general from among Cameron's
? personal henchmen also. If Davies and
i Greer are elected, then the pardon board
will bo po completely in Cameron's hand
as it was when Kenibie, Pen off, and
other legislative bribers were pardoned
because they were Cameron's friends,
The Duty of the Hour. Demo
crats will elect their State ticket in No
vember unless they deliberately throw
away their opiort unity. The Republi
can party is divided, and we have the
highest authority that a house divided
against, itself cannot s'and. But Dem
ocrats must not expect the fruits of vic
tory to fall into their hands unsolicited.
Victorv seldom comes to those who do
not work for it. There are some things
t that the chairman of the State commit-
! tee must do. The committee itself must
' attend to other matters. There issome
i thing for each candidate and party lead
j er generally to do. But there is one lir-
pent duty just- now pressing upon each
individual Democrat. It is a dutv eas-
i ily performed and yet of tr.e highest itu
i irtanco. It is simply to get reois
! teh ED. Now, Democratic reader, this
I is not intended lor your neighbor, but
i for yon. Attend to it at once. Don't
j put it oft until you forget it. Procras
i tiuation is dangerous. And eee that
your neighbor is registered, too. A full
Democratic vote means a Democratic
v ictory. llAUdnysbv. rg Standiird.
A PerttnknT QrKSTiox. How did
General leaver act towards General j
Hancock, wlien tlie latter was the nom- j
inee for President of tlie United States? ;
Did he vote for the hero of Gettysburg? j
Not much he didn't, oh, no, lie said i
that Hancock was on the wrong side, j
and made speeches that were very bit- j
ter airainst him. This, too, in the face ;
of the fact that General Hancock ia7e
Beaver and was his friend in the army.
Like the ungrateful viper, he turned
and stnnrr the generous man who had
warmed in his bosom. Why, then, will
Democrats vote for Heaver ? What did
Beaver ever Co for any Democrat stand
ing as the nominee of Lis party ?

an. the intrinsic value of the bronze
medals bestowed upon the Old Guard of
3')0 is about thirteen cents apiece. Thev
j are made of some cheap composition and
; enclosed in a thin covering of bronze, on
j which the figurehead of Grant and the
j other devices are stainpeil. Ia this the
! reason Beaver does not wear his medal
J when the appears in public ?
niE FIGHT AUAIXSI CORRUTTIOX.
It is well for the people or Pennsylva
nia to understand at the ouset that the
present campaign is to be a fight with
money in it, but the money wiil be used
on one side only. Even if both parties
and there are really but two parties
to the struggle, are on an equal footing
so far as financial resources are concern
ed, the men who are fighting for reform
are debarred by the nature of the contest
from going into the market for votes
and bidding against the Cameron ma
chine. No reform can coine through
the success of a party, whatever its pre
tensions, which wins by polluting the
ballot box. That the parly which se
cures the offices by corrupt means will
j make a corrupt use of them ever af-
terwards is a fact established by the his
! tory of every country in which bribery
I has at any time been a potent factor in
i politics.
The Democracy is neither surprised
J nor dismayed by the desperate programe
I of the machine managers. When a vig
j orous fight against the, Cameron corrup
1 tionists was decided upon it was exjec-
ted that the machine would seek to
j maintain its power by the use of every
species of political knavery attainable.
Its ti iumphs, theiefore, have been main
ly achieved by bribery and illrgal voting
and false counting. So many of its ad
herents have been sent to the peniten
the state. It is taken for granted that
every purchasable voter will be bought
bv the machine and will wotk and vote
for the machine ticket. To these men
i the Democracy and others who desire
; reform in the politics of the country do
i no no intend to make any frantic ap-
ieals. The wretch who will make mer
! chandise of the elective franchise is lost
: to all sense of honor and decency, and
; language addressed to his reason is
I worse than wasted.
; i'.iit in spite of t ho tln'mtids of venal
! voters who are expected to sell theni
' selves to the Cameron machine, the over
' whelming defeat of the ring cannot
! be doubted. A vast ma jority of the peo
! pie of the Keystone state have sufficient
I honesty and patriotism to condemn the
j faction whose main reliance in the prc
1 sent struggle is fraud (and no man
. needs to be told that a purchased vote is
morally and legally as fraudulent as a
1 vote gained by false counting or one cast
. by a repeater). If a majority of the
.-people are ready to sanction the use of
( money for corrupting tho ballot then
, republican government in this state has
practically ceased to exist. To indorse
j bribery as legitimate Is to make the sor
! vants of the people their masters ; is to
give the party in power tha right to per
petuate its rule by buying up the voters
1 at each recurring election with the mon
ey taken from them by taxation. Wo
have too much faith in the integrity and
intelligence of the people to believe thr.t
with their eyes open to the facts and
the facts will be so presented before the
campaign closes that every elector can
understand them they will deliberately
vote to make themselves the ierpetual
chattels of the Cameron machine.
THE DEMOCRATIC DUTY.
THE IMPORTANT MATTERS TO
TENJLiED TO AT ONCE.
15E AT-
The assessors have received copies of
the registry, and the books are, or ought
to be diung up, as piovided by law,
against the doors and windows of the
voting places in the different divisions.
Now that tho book is exposed for public
inshjction, every voter will have the op
portunity to see that bis own name and
those of his friends are on the list or are
! Pr'Tfrly entered, so that any person
whose name is not found in the books
when he wants to pny his tax, or at the
election in November, can have no one
to blame but bims-lf for the pain of los
ing, or th' trouble of proving, his right
to vote. If any of the books should hap
pen to disapjx'ar. cit izens can easily as
certain the address of the assessor, in
case any corrections or additions are
necessary.
County committeemen, sub-committee-
men and every Democrat who desires to
I aid the efficient organization of the par
; ty will do well to observe these points
: and At t promptly :
! 1st. Always remember that success
I depends upon getting out every Demo
cratic vote. AN 1) Til AT YOUR WORK
j LIES IN YOUR DISTRICT.
! 2d. Your first duty is to MAKE A
! COMTLETE CANVASS OF Y'OUlt

j name of every voter, marked as to poli-
tics.
1 r,J. Then on your small 1ooks the
name of every Democrat in each sub
: district, so that each sub-committeeman
I wiil know whom to look after and will
i get every Democrat registered,
j 4th. See that everv man is registered,
not later than the first day of September.
, Especially look alter young men who

A Fish with Hanos In June of ls&l we
published the subjoined
A
most extranrdtnarv creathre wan dre.nr,.a
from the bottom of the pea, not lent unee, near
tho northern shores of Anstralia. The fKdv was
that of a fish. hut. wonderful to relate It had in
place of tiai four leir. terminated bv what mcrht
I ,'efalle'1 unds, hy which It ma le it way over the
I coral reel. hen placed on the skT-llsrht of the
steamer, tbe fish Flood ujon its four b-as. a si-ht
to behold. It was small, and ome'hini like a
liard. hut with the body of a fish. The land anl.
reals of Australia are notorious for their T.ecniir
1 forms and structure, but. according to the above
as described before the Koyal Society, they are
j even less nondescript than "those inhabiting the
I Australian seas. y r. W hite. a late member of the
j Australian l'x-lipse Expedition, tells stranire tales
about rats. He says a llt'le island open which he
1 ana nis mates pitcned their tents wag overrun
I vnein. ann. wnat was molt extraordinarr,
I they were ol every color, from black to yellow, aiid
I some torUuse shell.
j Last Fri lay, while on a vWt to Villa An
; gela. the Prsa'ine College at Notlngham. O.,
i Mother St. Mary, who has qnite a cabinet of
i curiosities, showed us an animal precisely
i according with the above description, with
I one exception, the addition of a natural col-
lar completely surroundiug the creature's
j neck.
One ef the Sisters hooked and drew ur the
animal from tbe creek bordering the grounds
The collar os perfectly defined and coralli
form. At first we supposed it to be detach
ed from the body, but Mother St. Mry, who
prepared the animal for preservation, in
forms us that the collar is joined to the flesh.
It certain iy is not only a "nio-t extraordi
nary creature," but nio-t extraor.'inari.y
fonnd, when we consider that the only other
of which there is record so far as we can
leant was dred.'ed up from the deep tp. cf
far Australia. C'cYif t'ar.W.'c l'invTie.
