Sound to be the representative of the en tire party, and hence regard it as unwise, and inexpedient to make any spec a: er par ticular pledge in relation to aav special or i-articular question which involve- conflict ing interests, and think that any legislator to be efficient, should be free and natrons utriM to act at all times in accordance with the will of his constituency. As to the law s refoired to in your communication ifl be elected and they come before the Legislature for it* action, I shall be gov erned in my action concerniiig theui, as 1 • decui wisest and best, and that will be in f accord with the best interest* and repre- ) seulation of those whom 1 serve. It iny past lilb and record be not a suffi cient guarantee ot what my course would be on anv question relating te the well-be ing of the District, or the Commonwealth, then no pledge 1 could make would give any greater assurance or indicate my ai tion as a public servant.

And in reply thereto I have only this to say, through the j kindness asd partiality of uiy fellow Dem-, ocral* 1 have been placed in nomination j as a candidate for Slate Senate. Pledges given by candidates before election as pasli experience h*-.shown. are generally aim-! plv traps to catch votes, and are rarely held binding under the changing circum-! stances which a few months usually pros j duee. I consider it to be right, theretore, if not indeed a bounden duty, to make no, pledges to any one upon any subject; if; elected as 1 hope to he. 1 desire te go into' the Senate a free man—free to speak, act' and vote upon every question that may come before that botjy, as at the time I -hall conscientiously heietve to be right, and to the best interests of my constituents and Slate.

WAKIAU. 7u the president and Members of the "■Open Temyeran?* I'sw*" of Ventre County. Gentlemen ;—1 have the honor to ac knowledge the receipt of certain interro gations purporting to emanate from your organisation. I have noticed ia the news papers a call for a Convention for the en forcement of the Local Option Act, to be held on the 19th iast, at Milesburg. It seemed *a little singular that such a Con vention should been called on the eve of j our annual election, and as it was freely spoken of here us having been gotten up by certain Democratic politicians ia the interest of my competitor, Mr. Orvis. j I gave it a careful examiaation. Ap pended to this call I found the name of; Prof. Thomas who has for tome months been resting in an honored grave ; and up on inquiry of other gentlemen whose names appeared there 1 found that they were used for this purpose without their knowl edge or consent. And tbey freely ex pressed the opinion that the movement was dltimed, and gotten up by a party well known to us all, for political effect. Further inquiry satisfied me beyond a rea sonable doubt, that these interrogatories were framed by Genl Wm. 11. Blair, a violent Democratic partisan, and aa inti-j mate friei d and supporter of Mr. Orvis ; Having commenced the investigation 1 cetermiued to inquire some what into the record of thiseminently virtuous man, and learned that he was * candidate (or the Legislature in Centre Co., in 1851, and that he had pleged himself to the Temper ance Cause, and that after he was elected he had violated these pledges, alleging that he had only been in "fun" when he made them. Gentlemen, 1 have always been a temperate men, but I entirely dis-i approve oi making temperance a party issue, as all past experience has proven that this course has been disastrous to the; cause. 1 am also opposed to pledging candidates as experience proves that the life and record of a man is a better guar antee of fidelity, than any written pledge. I have been placed in nomination by the Republican party, and if elected will en deavor tVuhtully to represent the people oi Centre County, and in this as all other questions will bo governed by their wish es. In conclusion gentlemen, permit me to say that the time when these questions are propounded and the accredited mover in this affair fullv convince me that y©u have been deceive'd by a political trickster-i And while I invite your careful scrutiny ot my past life and record, you mute*-j cuse me if I decline to be catechised by] Gen) Blair tor the benefit of hi* special friend Mr. OnrU, in particular, and the Democratic party in general. With the highest consideration and re spect I am very respectfully Ac. LEVI A. MILI.BR. (Mr. Blair arose and showed that Mr. Miller was in error in hi* charges.

BELI.EFOSTE, PA., .Sept, 15,1873 Gentlemen On my return on Sat urday the 13th, inst., from attending Court at Lock Haven, I received your communication of the game day, en closing the Preamble and Resolutions adopted "at a meeting of the Open Temperance Union" of Centre Coun ty, held in Milesburg, on Friday even ing, the 12th, Inst., and also a request that I should answer on or before the 18th, inst., the two Interrogatories which your Association propounds As I am compelled to leave on this mornings train for Lk Haven where I shall be engaged in Court until after the Eighteenth, I must, in order to comply with your request, give a somewhat hurried and brief reply. Intending that my answer shall be io telligible I merely make this apology Lr the absence of any elaboration. I most heartily coucur in your proposi tion that "it is au undoubted right of the people before casting their ballots to be informed of the position on all important questions of those who as pire to represent them in either Branch of the Legislature" I can not however, give a categorical answer, to your first question, but will endeav or to make my position sufficiently plain, that no voter need vote for oi against me under any misapprehen sion on that point." The Supreme Court of the State having declared the Act of March 27th, 1872, com monly called the "Local Option Law" to -be constitutional, it follows thai the elections held last winter and spring under the Provisions of the Act, were constitutional aud legal expres sions of the will of the people of the several counties aud cities of the Com monwealth at the time. I be'ieve it the imperative duty ofev ery Representative to faithfully lepre sent the will of a majority of his con stituents when known, as loug as he can cotiscientsously do sc, and when •ver he caunot conscientiously do so, to resign his position and permit the majority to elect a representative who the people. 1 have hitherto endeavor ed to represent the people of tliin ooun ly faithfully ami if re elected shall can and will carry out the wishes of c ontinue to do eo. A* long as a major ity of the qualified voters of Outre ICounty, shall desire the Local Op ',lion l>nw to remain in force, I, us the Representative of the county, will vole against its repeal or anv auch modification of it us would destroy its jcficicitcv. Whenever itisshowiihylha (result of n legal election or by the ex ercise of the Constitutional right of ! petition, that u majority of qualified voters of the county desire that Law to be repealed or modified 1 shall vote ■ in favor ofauch retieul, or modification in obedience to the mandates of my 1 constituents. To your second IU terrogatorv, 1 answer that I am op |Mseu to ihe sale of intoxicat ng liquors, without l.cctise ami • n Sunday, to* furnishing it by gift sale, or otherwise to minors, to the insane, to persons intoxicated at the time, or to men of known iutenijierate habit--; ami being well assured in this regard that 1 enter taiu the saute opdioiu* held by a j very large majority of tbe people of this County, I shall oppose any legislative action calculated to render iucffict-nt tbe penalties now provided by tbe law for these ofleuces. 1 remain, gentlemen You ia, Ac. JOHN 11. OKVIS. THE CONTSITI'TIONAL CONVEN TION. Philadelphia, September 'Jo, lN*r<-eii tatives shall be apportioned among lue sev eral counties according to imputation, on u ratio to be obtained by dividing thajwhole p ipulation of the State, a- ascertained by tUe moat recent United States census, bv two hundred. Any county, including Philadelphia, having more than one ratio shall be entitled to a member for each full ratio, but each county shall be given at least one member, and counties shall not be joineb to form a district. Any county having leas than live ratios shall have an additional member for a surplui exceeding [ .ne-half a rati# over one or more full ratios. 'Any couaty, including Philadelphia, hav ing over one hundred thousand inhabit ants, shall be divided into districts, and every city shall be entitled to separate rep resentation when its population equals the ratio, but no district shall elect more than four members. The Legislature at il> first session after the adoption of this and thereafter, immediately aft< r each United States decenuial census, shall apportion the Slate into Senatorial and Representative districts, agreeably to the provisions of the foregoing sections. THATS WHAT'S TIIK MATTER The V. Y*. Tribune commenting upon the situation says: On other detail* of the crash we do not care here lo comment. The end is not yet Bank* wall nijch a* pretentious as the great house that ha* fotie down are loaded with stocks, beside* which Northern Panties seem like Five-Twentie* or British Cor.- tola. It i* good time to stand from under. But it I* our duly to loek further ahead and further back than front the risiug to the going down of the un. There is a strong party in thu country who believe that our ifnanciai tyU-in based a* it is on nothing qui the Government'* suspended paper, is a safe and salutary one. The events which are now hap(>ening from day to day ought to undeceive such people. Experience t*ache* bnt one lesson on this question of the currency—that no money consisting of paper not convertible on de mand into the actual 'Hiantilie* of gold or silver represented on its face can he safe ar permanent. France reaped a speedy harvest of ruin from her asstgnanls. Eng land suffered perhaps greater severity of punishment for attempting the same exper iment that we ar# trying—undertaking to make irredeemable paper a permanent standard of value. Her experience ex tended over forty years, and not until the great panics which culminated in 1837 was the old pater system fully uprooted. Rag ing with the fever oi speculation, prostrat ed by the inevitable reaction, from the close of the great war* with Napoleon in 1816 to the grand downfall of 1837, she led the life of a gambler. Is our history to furnish a simple repetition of England's blunders'* Are we to learn nothing from the experience of our fathers and grand fathers and of every civilized nation that has tried and failed in the same experiment ' Our currency is depreciated. The pre mium on I*W V the tncrassed cost of living, and the complete withdrawal of coin from circulation, afford sufficient proof of that. It is depreciated because too much ha* been issued. To add to the volume will only depreciate it more. When green backs were made a legal tender and prices began to rise, th debtors ot the country found that their debts could be settled for much less value than lhy oiigdially re ceived itaun the creditor. Speculation* were thus encouraged and an era of reck loss borrowing was inaugurated. The fu ror of gambling spread* on every side, The morals oi thousand* of men in busi ness became contaminated. We sowed the wind: and we now reap the whirlwind. Tbe insidious disease which for ten years and mora has been poisoning the blood oi the nation now shows its herrid work to the light of day and the eye* of the world. Faithlessness to their JtrusU in officers of Government, from the highest to the low est, and in custodians of private funds: ra pacity and unscrupulousne-s of corpora lions; coWsrdice ar.d venality of those who should he the guardian* of the honest and simple—these have at lat worked out their inevitable result The indignation ot the public is roused. The confidence of the public is gone. Again and again tjie question is present ed to the Couru of this country, does the purchase of a railway ticket entitle the passenger to a seat ? The matter was re cently decided in favor of the passengers by a Court in Indiana. The plaintiff in the case refused to give up hit ticket until provided with a seat, and was removed from the train by the conductor. It was shown on the trial that thecars were crowd ed, and that there was no seat which the conductor could have furnished the plain tiff; but the Court held that the company, having taken the passenger's fare, was bound to provide him with the usual and proper accommodations, and the jury {mulcted the Railroad Company in two I thousand dollar* damages. The Detroit i Free Pre**, after ac quiescing in the gener ■ I fairness and justice of tho verdict, con itinues: "Almost any railroad company in I the country might at timet find its accom modations' iuiufficient and it would seem ! a harsh rule which should compel them to carry free every person who should enter the cars after the seats were all taken. A company which habitually provides insuffi cient accommodations, either from a reck less disregard of the convenienc of pa**en ger, or for the purpose of forcing them to ride in parlor cars at an additional cost, deserve* no sympathy in this regard; but there are railroad lines where tho rule luid down in the Indiana Court would work in justice." BROWN SUGAR TO UK AVOIDED. A writer to the Herald of Health rays "It surprised mc to see your correspond ent'a recommendation to lite brown sugar in the preparation of food. I queried whether he had ever eeii the process of the manufacture and refining of sugar. Does she know that brown sugar means simply and solely, moist and dirty sugar? Does she comprehend the quality and na ture of the dirt which constitutes it' brown ness ? Does she know that pure loaf, crush ed or granulated sugar is not only perfectly free from dirt, and is incapable of adulter ation, but is much cheaper, pound by pound, even at the slight additional price usually charged for it, than brown sugar of any grade, because you buy no dirt or moisture, but pure saccharine matter? Does she know that the notion that brown sugars are sweetor than white isa mire fan cy and that the contrary is true? I suppose we are each and all destined to eat our peck of dirt sooner or later, but thero is dirt—and dirt—and save us Irom the dirt that makes brown sugar brown." —Thomas Love, miner at Hecln mines was struck by a stone from the hands of one Mr. Zimmerman, on last Sunday aweek, the result of which may cause death. The particulars as near us we can discover are as follows: One ef Mr. Love's hogs happened to be in one of the fields on the McMullen farm, and was be ing driven therefrom by the above parties, when some words ensued, after which Mr. Zimmerman struck bis antagonist with a stone, which it appears, he held in his band for 'that purpose, inflicting a severe gash on the forehead. The injured man is under theitreatment of Dr. Fisher, and we trust, will recover.— Repub. NOGKOUND FOR ALARM. The ('bicnguTimes alludes in ft few sensible remarks to the pioecnt condi tio u of alia ire: There are a uutuber of very good reasons for supposing thut the panic will not become general, as in lS.'i?, or even extend lar beyond it* jirc.-enl limits. In the first plate, merchants generally have of late conducted their business with gacnt caution, having been admonished hv the severe stiing oncv of last fall to practice eoiiserva'o ini. 111 the next place, the past sea soli lots been n prosperous one. The crops tire abundant, and the foreign demand bids fair to he greater than usual, aud at belter prices Nearly all branches of niniiufaeturo are in a very flourishing condition, Product* of almost all kind* are abundant, aud timl ready sale. In the third place, there is a good reason to believe that the banks, except those that nie inti mately connected with stock gambling operations, are as strong as they ever have been, aud fully able to m-et all reasonable demands upon them. In the fourth place, and most tmpor taut of all, there is even It-* reason for distrust of the curreuey than ba existed for the past eleven years, li lJv>7 the banks made a pretence o! redeeming theii notes in tpecie. Hui lluir issues wcro excessive and depre j eiated, aud had driven coin almost eu-j tirely out of circulation. When the panic l>egai), there was a geueral run ou the banks by bill-holders as well a? depositors. They were unable to re-, deem became they had not sufficient specie, and could not find it in th• country. It was not here toauy great extent! and what was here was care fully hoarded the moment the storm' burst. The consequence was that the bauks were forced to suspend nearly everywhere, their notes became worth less as a general thing, and there was, almost no curreuey in the country with which to do business. Under such circumstances it was natural that the panic should beqytne universal, aud that dire distress should follow* At present the case is altogether dif ferent. Nobody distrusts the curren cy. There is uo ruu ou the banks for greenbacks, and there is not going to he. There is circulation euough out to transact all legitimate business, and it is very much more likely to appro-j ciate than the reverse. There is, therefore, no sort of occasiou for gen eral alarm, aud no possibility of au old-fashioned monetary panic. The Wall street gamblers ami the bank* that have lent them money will per haps continue to tumble for some days more, but legitimate business will go on without interruption, and with very little inconvenience, uuless peo ple not connected with (he gaiubliug fraieruitv get frightened without cause. Meantime rutteu hanking in stitutions will disappear, ami those which survive will be stronger and more deserving of confidence than ev er. It is altogether likely that with-; in a week all excitement will die out, and business will become more active aud healthy than it has beeu for a long time. '1 he Tribune says: "The wild talk about the right ol the government to lend money to brokers or bauks ou collateral, with or without law, iu or der to relieve the panic, was the talk of reckless men, maddened by the re sults of their own insane speculations. To hold that the l'resideut had the right to violate law in the iuterest of operators in stocks is well nigh as cra zy a theory as was ever advanced by the wildest Keds in the stormiest days of Paris." Tbe world says : "The main evil now is only the alarm which has seized so many imaginations. It has proceeded so far that something which will strike the imagination is necessary for curing it. This is no time for rea soning the community out of its rooted financial prejudices. A physician who administers bread pills to a hys terical patient is under no dclu&iou himself, though he allays a nervous rnaladr by humoring a delusion of his patient. As Honamy Price said, a vial of clear water from the shop ot a famous apothecary uiay perform wonderful cures." FYEBYTHIHC IS LOVELY , Senator Morton was making great headway in his buncombe speeches through Ohio lately, by constantly re minding the people that unpaaal ellcd prosperity of the country was due to the Republican parly which must be maintained in power so that the great blessings of paper money should continue evermore. He has couie to a sudden pauic and is to bo found around Wall street and in coustaut communication with Grant endeavoring to allay the storm. The World mentions his visit as follows : Perhaps the busiest ami most anx ious man iu New York during thej financial excitement of last Saturday was Senator Morton of Indiana. Tele grams frequently passed and repassed between the Senator, the I'resident. and the Secretary of the Treasury. The Senator was seen nervously ap pearing and disappearing from the corridors of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and was often'conspicuous among the excited crowd in Wall street. The devilupon tyo sticks in Lc Sages humorous sketch was not half so busy uurooling the houses of Madrid as was the Indiana Senator in smothering down the fiery foutcroprings of the financial panic. The zeal of this sin ister politician in behalf of Wall street is easily accounted for. Only n few days hefore Senator Morton had de clared iu his speech nt Dayton Ohio, that the country was never in a better moral, political, or financial condition than it now is. According to Senator Morton confidence iu everybody and everything proved the beneficence of Republican rule, nnd nothing could disturb that confidence except the choice of a Democratic Oovernor and Legislature in the coming Ohio election. The suspension of Jay Cooke A Co., whose colossal hanking business had grown up under Republican patronage and on Republican principles of! enterprise, was an unexpected ami by no meaus a welcome contradiction to Mr. Morton's confident assurances. The panic which followed promised to iuvolvc in ruin the entire financial structure on the stability of which he had so largely staked the issue of the Ohio election. Hence the activity of Morton; and though he hnd little or nothing to do with restoring con fidence he luckily hua a few shreds of his Dayton argument left to shake in the fnce of Senator Thurmati. Rut Mr. Thurman could hardly find a beter argument against Mortou and other Renudlicana in Ohio than is furnished by tho collapse of the fictitious schemes inaugurated by Republican lobbyists und Congress men. The land grab, which has thriven so luxuriantly under Republi can nurture, was the direct occasion of the recent panic, und when Morton returns to the Ohio canvass it should be with his confidence iu the stability produced by republican measures somewhat abated. We are aware that not eveu the policy which Mor ton defends is coupeteut to utterly destroy the prosperity of the country.

A Terrible Scene -The Hope llmtks—Eight Minute* for Conversation [l'rvm (he Liverpool Mercury.] James Connor, who was convicted at the last Liverpool assizes of tbe murder of James Gatfuev, in Mifl street, Toxteth I'ark, in this town on the night of the lllh u)L, was execu ted yesterday morning within the precincts of Kirkdaljaii. He ntouut ed the steps bravely, walked straight oil to tbe drop under lire cross beam, cast bis eyes above at the fatal uoose, aud then looked straight forward, smiled piea.-antly, and ii nided to twu warders who were standing a short dotauce off. llis coolness never for a uiomeut seemed to forsake him, aud there war n bravado about the whole affair which gnve an additional hor ror to the proceedings, the condemned man being apparently the least moved of those preseut. Calcraft drew the white cap over his fan-, placed a strap round his legs, bade him farewell byj shaking oue of Lis bauds, adjusted the rope, aud in another moment the drop fell. Unfortunately the rope broke' and the strands of the broken end flew in the air. The condemned criminal fell on to a second platform, which was tilted two or three feet lower than the treacherous trap door upoii which he had stood. He remained in an up right posiliou, except that, being pin iomd, he fell to the edge of the plat form. The poor man uttered exclama tions of paiu, aud, on being got to the upper platform of the scalfoid, the white cap was drawn above bis vyes aud he was placed ou a chair. Aftr the first exclamation of paiu the condemned man said to the war der who was assisting him from the lower platform, "What do you calL this ? do you call this murder ?" and afterwards he said, "You should let me off after this; this is surely enough." The mark of the rope round the poor fellow's neck was plainly visible. At one pari there appeared to be a cut, from which blood was slightly issuing. A fresh rope having been brought the condemned man viewed it with the utmost concern and remarked, "I stood it like a brick the first lime." Ohserviug that the executioner was ready, he got up from the chair, plac ed himself on the drop, aud, his arms being only pinioned at the elbows, stooped his head so that he might; reach the white cap with his hands,' pulled the cap over his face himself, aud then assisted in placiug the rope round his neck. This being accom-; plished, (.alcraft ouce more drew the bolt, the door fell, the prisoner seem ed lifeless for a second or two, aud then a few fearful struggles of the body and lower limbs told how much he suffered. He was a lithe, welf built ronu, and he appeared to die hard.
