The Legislature. A correspondent of the Reaver Ju dical, in his Harrisburg gossip says that Senate and House will be organ itcd as follows. Hon. George H. Anderson, of Pitts burg, will be elected Speaker of the Senate, and Hon. Russell Krrett, Clerk. Anderson was the Republican nominee last Spring, and was defeated by Col. M'Clura. lion W .Elliott will be re-elected Speaker, for the Speak er, of the House does not become Gov ernor in case of death or resignation, aud is selected at the meetiug of the Legislature. Selfridge and Shurlock ot vour ceunty, are candidates lor Clerk, and the contest will be close. " The same writer makes up a list of candidates for the United Slates feen atorship, in case Geo. Cameron de clines to be a candidate. It includes lion. 11. Bucher Swope, Judge Sco field, Hon. John Allison, Col. M. S. Q uav, Wayne M'Yeigh, Col, J. D. Cameron, lion. W. Kemble, Mm. B. Maun, Gen! Todd, Hon. \V. Ketchum and a host of others. There will be no State Treasurer to elect this winter Mackev holding over until a law is passed providing for an election by the people in accordance with the amend ment to the constitution just adopted. It is fortuuate that it is so. He also says Hon. Wm. Meredith, Isaac Hazlehurst, Col. Wm. B. Mann, of Philadelphia: Hon. Wm. Arm strong, of Lycoming; Hon. Samnc) Dimmick, of "Wayne; Hon. W. W. Ketchum, of Luxerae; Hon. George Lear, of Buck*, or H. Green, Esq., of Northampton are named as the num ber out oi which one will be chosen by Gen. Hartranft as his Attorney Gen eral. The Secretary of State is to be selected from that portion of the State west of Harrisburg, but no names are given. The Power to Seixe Property for School Purposes, Last Monday ISth, in the Supreme Court Judge Agnew delivered the opinion of the Court in the case of F. J. Feme vs. the School Directors of the Sixth ward, Allegheny, in which the judgement of the Court below was a writ of error to the Court of Com mon Pleas of county, and the actioD was brought to determine whether School Directors have the right to en ter upon improved property for school purposes* Feme owned a dwelling house adjoining the school property in the Sixth ward, and the Board having failed to negotiate with the owner for it had viewers appointed, and then it took possession of it for school purpo ses. The case was brought in the Court of Common Pleas to recover the property, and a verdict for defendents was rendered. The case was then car ried up to the Supreme Court and the directors again sustained. South Carolina. ELLIOTT, the negro candidate for United Statee senator in South Caro lina, iudignantlv denies the report that he has withdrawn. In a letter to one of the newspapers of that state he says: "I am a candidate for the poeition of United States senator from this state, and shall remain a candidate until the final vote shall have been reached by the general assembly* Underlying my candidacy is a ques tion of principle, right, and justice, which lam determined, so far as I am able, to have asserted, I am de termined to have the anestion at once settled as to whether the lack of mon ey shall exclude men from office, or whether those qualities alone which can conscientiously appeal to the higher sensibilities of oar manhood shall prevail. My every effort shall be to have the whole of the people of this state, as well as of the entire country, understand whether or not the performance of the pledges recent ly made by the republican p*rtf shall be foreshadowed by the blighting in fluence of a purchased seat in the sen ate of the nation. The negroes are in the majority in both houses, and they can elect one of their own color, unless, money induces them to discard color. J. J. Patter son, very recently from Juniata coun ty, is also a candidate, and has plenty of money to tempt the black members. It is supposed that the democrats will vote for Elliott. —-FlßE.— Again we have tfio 'great ca lamity of Chicago. October, 1(171, repeated at Boston, November. 1872, and it is with uleasuie that we herewith annex a partial list of the old and reliable Insurance Com panies, that Tiave successfully passed through these liery ordeals.

The above well known companies have therefore fully sustained their positions in the iront rank of first class companies. The lessons learned by the insuring pub lic, in the bitter experience of Chicago and Boston, has certainly taught them to ap preciate the value of Policies in such reli able companies as those, which are all rep resented at this Agency.

A SMALLER VOTE AND GREATER MAJORITY. The election returns begin to pre tent a curious subject for political i speculation. It seems likely to turn out that Gen. Grant, notwithstanding his overwhelming majority, really re-, ceivcd fewer votes ill l8 r 72 than in j 1868. Tho negro vote, being now ! first fully counted iti a Presidential olectiou, is of course excluded from the comparison. The population of the United States, must have increased nearly three millions, in the last four years; and the ftill vote which** Presidential election draws out should naturally show an increase of not loss than eight per cent over the vote of 1868. If Gen. Grant were only relatively as strong as in 1868, his vote then should be eight per cent heavier. Put his majorities are so much increased iu the ditlcrent slates, aud he makes so nearly a clean sweep i f the states, that his aggregate vqto would seem sure to be vastly greater. Yet the returns tell a curiously different story. In his own state of Illinois, for ex ample, ho has actually fewer vote# than were cast for him in 1868. Tho official returns are not yet all in, but those received all point in that direc tion. In New Hampshire, he had 88 191 voter sin 18t8 : iu 1872 he had but 37,235. In Vermont, he hail 44,- 167 in 1868; in 1842, he has about 41,475. In Connecticut, ho had 50,086 in 1868 ; in 1872 he had 50,699. Pennsylvania affords still more sug gestive figures. In 1860, it gave Lin coln 268,030 votes. In 1864, it gave him 296,391. In 1868, it gave in the October election 331,416 for the Re publican State ticket, and a month la ter, 342.280 for Graut. Instead of in creasing about 30,000, as wonld have been uatural if the parties had remain ed about relatively the same, the vote of Hartranft only rose in 1872 to 353.557, while the vote for Graut ac tually fell ofl'in November to 349,589 or barely seven thousand more thau in 1868. And yet, with this falling off in his vote, Grant's majority was nevertheless swelled to over a hun dred thousand more thau llartranft-. In New York the returns do not yet permit an accurate statement. Gen. Grant's vote is probably -light ly heavier than iu 1868, but by no means up to the uatural increase. He gains iu the cities, (where the Tweed and O'Brien regime in 1868 stuffed ballot-boxes,) aud falls off'slightly in the rural couuties. New-Jersey alone appears to show a gain equal to the natural increase. Fewer people voting for him, and Jet a bigger majority,—that seems to avo been the rule iu (leu. Grant's last election. We do not believe that the signiticant fact will be lost, either upon the President himself, or upon the shrewd ami able men who have directed his canvass. —Tribune. Valuable Meteorological Discov- From Washington comes the intel ligence that the researches of the sig nal office have just been rewarded with a beautiful and highly impor tant meteorological discovery on the coast of England. From time im memorial the phenomenon of the great November atmospheric wave has been the speculation of scientists and sea men, but Sir John Herschel aud oth ers have supposed it was confined to England and western Europe, which it reached from the south Atlantic, and over which it rolls in long contin ued undulations from October until January, constituting an important element in the phenomenal character (of European winters. Ou the 12lh of November, a similar atmospheric wave began to break over the shores of Oregon and British Columbia, as shown by the weather telegrams. By the evening of the 13th, it had spread over nearly all the Pacific states and the territories of Utah and Nevada, and at midnight was passing through the passes of the Rocky mountains. On Thursday, the 1-llh, it descended upon Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas aud Indian territory. On Friday morn ing it extended, in apparently unbro ken magnitude and magnificence, from Oregon and Washington territory eastward through the great trough or depression of the Rocky mountains' back-bone, in Idaho ami Montana, and stretched thence to tho lower Missouri and lower Mississippi valleys and over the western shores of the Mexican gulf. This discovery will enable rnetror ologists to anticipate by many days the approach of winter as it advances from the Pacific coast eastward in the .great current of westerly winds. It serves to clear up the old mystery of American winter storms, showing that they originated in the Rocky moun tains, against whose cold and loftiest summits in Nevada, Utah and Color rado, and Southern Wyoming, the va por laden air of this wave is now soon to be forty-first parallel. As this vast aerial wave Crossing from the warm Pacific is probably like the English wave cumbered in successive undula tions for two or three months, it may assist in explaining the comparative high temperature and light precipita tion in winter along Puget'e sound and eastward. Paris, November 14. —The affairs ofthe French government arc again threatening, and are likely to become complicated by the movement contem plated by the opposition party in the assembly. The monarchists have be come considerably agitated over the annual address of Thiers, read ou tha reassembling, yesterday. They pro posed a combined movement ou the part of tbo members in the assembly opposed to the preseut policy of the administration for the adoption of an address to be promulgated in oposiliou to the message of Thiers, declaring that "France is not repuolican in the present form of the government."

Fire Conservatives are absent, but will arrive to-night Three at Marengo, who were arrested yesterday, hold certificates of election, but they hare been carried to Mobile. This would make fifty-three Con servative members in the Conservative branch—fifty-ore is a quorum. The Re publicans arc said to have sworn in fifty two in their branch, claiming and seating three from Marengo and three from Bar bour counties, but who do not hold certi ficates ot election from tho Secretary of State. Tho Conservatives from Barbour county who hold certificates were arrested this afternoon, but they promptly gave bonds to appear at the next term of the United States Court, and were discharged.

An interesting case growing out of a fira in Homcrville hat recently been decided by tho Massachusetts Supreme Court A building belonging to the Metallic Com pression Casting Company was on fire. The engines wore at work puling it out having their hose stretched across the track of the Filching Railroad Company. A freight train came along and severed tho hose, and the buildihg and tho contents wero burned. The owners sued the rail road company to recover the loss. The principal questions involved in the case was whether the hose was rightfully put across the track, and whether the loss by the fire was not so closely connected with the negligent act of the company as to pro cludo n recovery by the plaintiffs. The .Supreme Ceurt decides that the negligent act of tho company was a direct and effi cient cause of the loss. A LONG LIVED REPUBLIC.

After having a good night's sleep in a foreign land, the Brat object my eyes be held in the morning, was the Suspension 1 bridge, which span# the "river about two mile* below the falls and i# a nobla and stupendous structure. It was built by J A. Koebling. of Trpnlon, N. J., and was begun in #862.

From this bridge our ere*! first beheld the falls of Niagara.

Over thismagnificont preci pice the Irresistible tide rushes at the rate of 100 millions tons of water every hour as computed by scientific men. The tola descent from lake Erie to Ontario is 334 feet The falls of X iagre were first seen i by a white man nearly two hundred years i ago , father Hennepin, a French Jesuit i missionary, first saw them when on nucx- < {.edition <>Y discovery in the year 1678. It I was not till lcamain tabic rock i on the face of the bright green watar, that i it cam* upon me in its full might and maj- ( city. The Niagara is forever stamped i upon my heart an image of beauty to re- | main there changeless and indeliihle un- t til all trouble oftdaily life .receded from i my view and lessened in the distance dur- t ing the dav I passed on that enchanted 1 ground. What voices spoke from out the thundering water, what face# faded from i tho earth, looked out upon mo from lla \ gleaming depths. What heavenly prom- i ise glistened in those angels' fears the t drops of many hues that showered onus I there. To wander to and fro all day and i see the cataract from all point* of view, t Wo first proceed to Horse-Shoe fall. The 1 view here is awfully grand. Repairing to c tho museum, vro are clothed In a water t proof suit, leaving nothing visable but our * phiz ; we then follow opr guide down tha long flights of stone steps, down, down, et s we gaxo upwards at the frowning cliff that leems tottering to its face, and pas# under y ;he thick curtiu of wafer to near that it u leems as if we could touch it. and hear the C Hissing (pray and are stunned by the deaf- h tiling roar that issues from the misty ver- o ex at our feet, an indiscribable feeling of h iwe steals over us Slid W9 Ofl mof tn* a ever impressed with the tremendous mug ] jniflcenre of Niagara. Behind our narrow footpath. Ill* proei-j .i'icotftho Horsetlioe fall ii parpen ilictilarly to a hlght of'.si fctt, at mir feet i the ollirdosernai about 70 feet into a tur- - moll of bustling foam ; in front la the 11-- quid curtain everi passing on ward never unveil* tbi# wildest of nature's; caverns. The volume of water tbat'gu#bc> ; over the Horseshoe fall is enormous It Is oatlmatcd that the sheet is fully'JU feet [thick in the centre, It is of a deep green ' ootor. We then ascend the locg stairway f to tho museum where we arc Jivoetod of thai magnificent robe which changed our ! appearance from that of demons to human beings This museum which stand# at the 1 top of tho bank near table Wilt, is well ' 1 worth visiting ; it contains a fine collection lof birds, beasts and fishes, besides a cam- ! era obscura. We then proceeded to and crossed the new Huspeiuiun bridge which , take# rank with any similar structure In the world. It is designed more especially fer foot passengers and carriages. This - bridge Is 1240 feet in length, and 10 fe. t in width ; the elevation oftliis bridge above the water is I'JO feet ; depth of the river under the bridge 260 feet. A fine view ofi the fall* and surroundings Is had from this I bridge while passing over. Being now on ! the American side, we pas# thro igh the i grove and cross the iron bridge over the . rappids. Here the noble River I* seen hur ry ing on toward* its final leap, and as we stand upon the bridge looking down upon the gushing flood of water that seems as if it would iween away our frail standing ' place and hurl us over the dread precipice whose rounded edge is but a tew yards further down. This is a fine point from which to observe the rappids above the fall*. The fall* of the river from the head 1 of the rappids, a mile above the falls, to the edge of the precipice is 60 feet, and I theinadn*## of the water* hurling and) foaming in billews and breaker* down the { 1 ascent, a# if fretting with impatience, is a! fine contrast to the uniform, magnificent j sweep with which at length they rush into the thundering flood below. Reaching (ioat island ; a narrow bridge connects this island we have a fine view of the rap* pid and the American falls, affording an opportunity of approaching the very verge or the precipice where you con k*>k down into the seething caldron below. Tho cen tral fall over which we pas* in our return to Goat ia!and,although a mere ribbon of j white water when seen from a short d is jtance in contrast with the great falls, is by no mean* unworthy of notice. It is lot) | feel wide and is a very graceful sheet. | Proceeding along the banks shirt dis >. laucc, we are pointed out the spot where; the celebrated Sam I'atcb made nis fauiou)( 1 leaps, jumping over the falls 97 feet into i the river. A fittle further on vie come to the cave of the winds, it is situated at the toot of the rocks between Goal island and : Lui d island, and is considered by soinc as ' one of the finest and uiost woudeiful sights r on the American tide. Can't describe the leave from the fact wc were too much ex-[ I'hausted to descend, and passed on until ' we reached the extremity of the Lland ; we crossed the bridge to Tereapin Tower ; this lower occupies a singular and awful - position. A few scattered ma#a* of rock lie on the very brink of the great fall seam >]ae if unable to maintain their position ■ against the tremendous rush of water. I rpon these rock* the town is built. Wei f plunged into the narrow dour and up the I k long winding stair* till we reached the I sutnuiil where we obtained tha moet mag-' - nificentvlaw that can be conceived; the, t.rappids above rolling tumultously to- - ward you ; the green water of the mighty! falls at your feet; below you the hissing ■ caldron of spray, and the river with its 1 ( Uep bank# beyond, in fact the wholei t range of the fall# themselves and the world i ■] of raging water* around them, are scan i I from this commanding point of view. - While standing on the top of this town, re - fleeting on the wonlerous works of Nature 1 ■you realise a feeliug of the deepest solem- j nity stealing over you, when you are coin • polled to adore tho power and majesty of - Un-Almigfity ruler of the Universe. We assm descend the crooke d stair j case and Tand in the bridge where 1 clam-' ) bored over stony railing of the bridge on > to a large ruck which Irenes on tbebrink of J the precipice and look one long, lost look, > down 160 feet into tbe fearful chasm be i lew. Passing on along tho edge of the rappids wo come to thu Island cal'cdglhe } Three sisters. Here between the shore and j 9 Moss island is a small but beautiful fall named Hermit's Cascade, where tbe un-' . fortunate Abbot was wont to repair daily < r to enjoy a shower bath of natures own -constructing. These islands, hithort* in i accessible, are now connected by substan tial fool bridge* from which tbe grandest views of the rappids are to be obtained. Tbe it land* above the rappids are numcr - ou*. the river being studded with them 1 j from lake Erie, all tbe way down to the i: falls, lirand island is the 4argv#L being • 12 miles long and 7 mile* broad ; it divide* - the stream into two branches. Navy is-j - land is just belew it. Here tho French , built their ships of war in 1769. This is land was tha resort of the rebel leaders in > 1837. It has an area of 314 acres , Our space and lime forbid# ftirther no-! lice of these islands which are exquisiliy beautiful. Some are large and others are - smell. Some He in quiet water clearlv rc • fleeted in the surrounding mirrer. While others stand in the mi • qualcly the task may be accomplished, we 1 are loth to lay down the pen and tear our i selves away from that wonderftil sceno. The Almighty has invested Niagara with a power which frail man that 1 am, 1 cannot resist, and those who gaxe upon it for the fitst time have a new>ra opened up in their existence. New thoughts andim-; pressions have been stamped indellibly] on my heart which will haunt me in after ! yean, and linger on my memory till lime ■ shall be swallowed up in cfernitv. Hail, tovcrign of the world of floods, , Whose majesty ar.d might first daxxle*. Then enraptures, then oerawc* the aching 1 sight. The pemp of kings and emperor# in every clime and rone ■ Grows disu beneath the splendor of thy; glorious watery throne- No fleets can stop thy progrev# t no armies bid the slay ; | Untoward, onward, thy march still holds! its way. The using mists that veil thee, her- j aids go before; i And the music that proclaim* thee, ; Is the thundering calract's roar. Loath as we were to leave those beauti j full scenes, e were compelled by hunger j and fatigue to retrace our steps, passing { j round the head of Goat island ami across! j the iron bridge to the village ol the fall*,, 'stopping at the Spencer house, opposite i the depot, feeling very much exhausted. ] but well paid for our time in visiting this the greatest curiosity of the world. Only I after lea and a rest in the parlor did 1 real ire that 1 was again in America. With [the idea that I was an American citixen free born and half white, and this being ! the dav appointed (to confirm the election, (of D. Tv Grant, as the monarch of these United States, for the next four years, 1 walked out to get the news of the election, my attention being attracted to a crowd on i the street, I repaired to the spot to oscer- , tain the cause of so many recr. being con gregated together where I learned that a certain free Ames lean of African decent, had refused to vote for U. S. Grant, w here upon the very loyal mob had pounced up on him ending in a genera! fisticuff. not 1 wishing to shed any nlood in behalf of • Uljttes I returned to tho hotel and retir ed. Wednesday Nov. 6th, took the train at 71 a. m , running along the river to Buffalo, where wo change car*, look the j Erie K.

Not having any desire to go to Waverly but wishing to take the North Central road to Mr illiamsport, we concluded to take the fl p. m . train on that road, had a (troll through the city ol Klmira which ha* a population of 16,0ui*, being tho coun tv seat |of Chemung poupty, situated on the Chetnung river. The pity U hand lomely laid out and contain* beside# the county bit ihlings, a female college, six banks, a large number of warehouse*, and AW general business firms, and ii the cen tre of an aclise trade. Took the train at 61 p. m., arriving at Williamsport at 11 p. m., a city of 10080 inhabitant*, and one of the lnrgoul lumber manufacturing cities in the >State. Leaving Williamsnort at 7i a| in., we arrive at Lock Haven just in time to raisa the connection with tho Bald Kag le Valley train. Stopped with iny good old friend* Ben and Sue, where wo spent the time very pleasantly till 8 p. m., when we again took the train, stopping nineteen times before reaching Bellefonte. After giving up all hope of ever getting back to tbeland qf the living and resign ing ourelvo to our fate they reversed the train, and we came (lying up to Bellefonte hindformost where wo gladl v left tho dirty old ears after having traveled over three thousand miles. On looking around to be sure we were in Bellefonte, we met a host of friends who seemed te bo eurprised to see us back none the worse of the trip. Feeling as though we could walk 40 miles yet heforo supper ye shouldered our traps and.slarled for Jerries . not long there till George that very obliging liveryman, hitched up his match nags and drove us ever that famed Nittany mountain to our borao inj the village .of Centre liall, we arrived at 7 a.• A. 0, Prospectus fh 1873 —Rixtii Y kail ThTTWT lilL xUaJUlix Ju, An illustrated Monthly Journal, univer sally admitted to b<> lite Handsomest IVriodicnl in the World.
