llrown's correspondence from the
western portion of the state, on the
Lieutenant Governorship, is quite
voluminous necessitating the employ
ment of a secretary, Col. Blair. His
prospects are considered flattering,
and other radical candidates are al
ready combining against hint. L*l the
greateful radicals of old Centre do their
duty to their ever true and tried lead
er
Brown says if he can be elected
Lieutenant Governor, he will In? ou
ly one step from the Vice Presidency,
which, if he reaches, in case of the
death of the President, would place
him iu the presidential chair, lheu,
says he, see how the lWavers aud
Blanchards would fawn around me
for offices.
The Tuteu sheet having uttered a
cowardly slander against senator Wt
ream, which was too low for any dem
ocratic paper to reply to, the Lewis
town Gaiette, a radical organ, rebukes
the Tutens as follows:
In an article on the apportionment
bill the liellefonteKepuh.ican refered
to it as follows . "Good bve Juniata
and drunken Joe Warearn." Howev
er we may differ in political matters
with our Seuator, we feel bouud tossy
that the above does Mr. Warearn
gross injustice, as it is an admitted fact
at Harrisburg that he is one of the
most abstemious Senators there —iu
truth we have heard it asserted he has
not tasted a drop of liquor iu that ci
ty since the legislature met.
The Mills house hotel, which cost
over $200,000 in gold, was sold al
auction on 3d,for $27,000. The buy
er is a prominent merchant, who will
refit and reopen the hotel by the first
of October in Charleston.
This is the effect of radical rule.
The unheard of extravagance of car
pet-bag government has caused such
frightful taxatiou, that property has
become next to worthless.
This judicial district will remain
uuder the new apportionment, as be
fore, com posed of thecounties ofCentre,
Clearfield and Clinton, and will have
under the new Constitution, two judg
es —Judge Mayer, and au additional
one to be chosen. Well-founded ru
mor has it, that Geo. Hartranft
will tender the appointment to Hon.
Jno. 11. Orvis, who will serve uutil a
judge is regularly chosen at the uext
general election, aud, of course, we
suppose, that Mr. Orvis will be the
man elected, although, for the good of
the democratic party, in the county
and state, we would prefer seeing Mr.
Orvis decline, as the party will loose
the services of one of the ablest demo
crats in the state, if Mr. Orvis goes
upon the bench. That Mr. Orvis has
the learning and ability to adorn the
judicial ermine, is well knowu, aud
needles for us to assert. His straight
forward course m the legislature, and
the ability he has displayed there as
a lawyer, have drawn to him the at
tention and gained him the confidence
of good men of all parties throughout
the commonwealth, and Mr. Orvis'
eminent qualifications impel the gov
ernor to bestow upon him the appoint
ment, although he has ever been
the uncompromising opponent of the
Governor's party ; the appointment,
under these circumstances, will be a
tribute to- the eminent fituess of Mr.
Orvis rarely testified to in this man
ner by one high in authority to a gen
tleman of opposite politics.

THE STRUGGLE FOB THE V.Y
CANT SEAT IN* THE SENATE.
Boston, April 5. —After three
hours' private meeting on Saturday
night the friends of Dawes and Hoar
separated without agreeing upon any
terms of compromise, which means a
transfer of a considerable number of
votes from the former to the latter.
Both parties express themselves de
termined to continue the contest as in
the past. Since the publication of
the charge arraigning Judge Hoar as
being inimical to Senator Sumner's
Civil Rights bill, the statement hav
ing been here ascribed to him that he
believes it unconstitutional, the Sum
ner element in the Legislature has
become aroused, aud look upon the
charge as having been inspired by the
power behind the Dawes element. The
fact, too, that the challenge made by
the autber of the charge defying any
one to successfully disprove the state
ment was made by one of Butler's old
political friends, now out of politics,
would seem to give color to this new
trick to place Hoar under n cloud.
The additional testimony of Wendell
Phillips against the Judge is also
cited as an evidence of his unworthi
nesa to succeed Sumner. A despatch
from Williams, one of the Massachu
setts delegation, to J. B. Smith, states
that before bis death Sumner told
him that Hoar agreed with him in
favor of the bill, and Hoar told Will
iams the same thing ou Saturday.
The introduction of this new element
will tend to make the cauvass more
personal and bitter thau ever.
The Chicago Timet remarks that
the simplest, easiest, cheapest, and in
perhaps every respect the best mode ot
inflating the currency was that pro
posed in the Washington house ou
Thursday by Mr.Cox. His proposi
tion was that congress pass an act de
claring every greenbuck now in circu
lation to be a legal tender for three
times the sum expressed on its face.
The effect of such a measure would be
exactly the same as an increase of the
greenback issue to three times the
present amount, and it would involve
no cost of printing and no delay in
giving to the country the "benefits"
of inflation. And yet the house re
fused to entertain Mr. Cox's proposi
tion.
The treaty between the of
England and the Emperor of Russia
for the marriage of the Duke of Edin
burgh and the Grand Duchess Marie
stipulates that the Duchess shall he
allowed to practice her own religion.
Children of the marriage are to be
brought up as Protestauts and main
tained as members of the British roy
al family. The Emperor gives his
daughter 75,000 roubles a year and a
marriage portion 0f2,000,000 roubles.
The Duke and Duchess are to bo
separately answerable for the debts
they may each incur.
On Sunday there were snow storms
in Chicago and in various parts of
Canada.
Origin of the Trouble sat Siimiuc
liauiiu Depot.
A eorresjmoilent of tbe Scrsnton
lirpuhliciiu writing tVoin tbe present
HOCUS of turmoil thus describes tbe
origin and progress of tbe troubles bo
tween tbe employees ami (be e >mpa
nv, as explained to liim by tbe cbair
man of lbs former :
Putiug tbe past winter the median
ics were working on three qunrlei
time, ami even at tbe small rate of
wages they could earn, it fixqucully
ran into tiie third mouth before they
could get their pay, and tin there
was no fixed time for paying l>nor
about tbe third of February tbe men
struck for a regular pay day, and the
matter was settled by the company
stating that they would make tlie
fifteenth of every mouth pay day in
future, and thai 110 v would give tin
men their February pay on the tit
toenth of March, tbe men r*umiai
work, and when tbe loth ot March
came, uoticoj was given through tin
officials that in consequence of certain
embarrassments into which the Com
panv bad fallen in New Yoik they
could uot pay before the 2*>th. Tbe
men accordingly yielded the ten duv
grace, and when tbe 2oth came a no
tice appeared on the bulletin board in
the shops to the tfect that the pay
master bad commenced paving else
where, and that those along tbe line
who were paid fir-t on la-t month
would be paid last th;> time, and rice
trrs.t. This notice was eagerly scan
ned, and its contents -pr.a I through
out the entire range of shops a> rapid
ly as a wave ot fire sweep* over the
parching prairie, lbs men taking it
as an insult. Accordingly pursuant
to a resolution adopted on the 111 h.
work was immediately >usjendci I by
the eleven hundred men, bells were
rung, a mammoth steam whistle wa
blown, the officials forced from the
shops, millbaml and lathe and wheel
were thrown idle, and the entire work
cleared aud under complete control of
thejmen in about twenty iniuuu-
In addition to striking for a regular
pay dav, tlie mechanics als-> demand
regular apprenticeship in the shops in
stead of employing un-kiil d labor, u
<at present, to do the work of mechan
ics ; they also want t Jhe paid up to
date aud receive at the rate of time
uud a half for all overtime. The rt g
ular monthly pay of the employee- in
and around the machine shop aver
ages 850,000. The p >pulalion of Sus
quehanna Dejvot is about >B,OOO, near
ly all of which is depeudeut on the
earnings of the nun employed in the
Erie Bail mad Company's luachius
shops. The loses arising to the com
pany from the present *trike cannot
be otherwise than enormous. Thou
sands of dollars worth of freight i*
lying at the depot, much of it cousist
ing of perishable goods, while all ol it
is urgently needed in the market.
The Hon. John J. Patterson, of
South Carolina, say the Patriot, is
acting as chairman pro lent, of the
committee of congress investigating
the robberies committed by the Dis
trict of Columbia ring. This is au
excellent arrangement b >lii for the
ring and for the senator. As good a
j selection could not have been made
had the ring had choice of the whole
senate and house of representatives.
Patterson is a ma t who will balk ut
no tritle. His services on this com
mittee alone ought to tuable him to
recover all the cost i f purchasing his
seat iu the seuate of the United
.States from the negro legislature of
South Carolina. On Tuesday Captain
Grant, a witness produced before the
committee hv the memorialists, a.-ked
for a little time so that he might make
certain calculations and estimate* of
work, but he was promptly informed
by the chairman pro ton. that no de
lav could be granted for that purpose.
It is not for the interest of the ring
that time should he afforded for a
close examination of their operations,
and the chairman decided according
ly. South Carolina i-Jvainly appeal
ing to congress for relief from the op
pression and misrule under which hei
people suffer while the most corrupt
product of that misru'e presides over
a committee to investigate the villain
ies of the District ring. What hope
for South Carolina or for the taxpay
ers of the District of Columbia with
John J. Patterson its arbiter of their

There is now being waged one of
the fiercest railroad wars ever had in
this country —a rivalry producing a
conflict which is affecting the trade of
Pennsylvania, in a railroad sense, from
the banks of the Schuylkill to those
of the Alleghany river. I allude to
the competition between the Balti
more and Ohio Railroad and the
Pennsylvania Central for the trade of
the West, not only with the National
< apital and the South beyond it, but
for the trade ami travel from the Last
to the West In order to get al the
facts on this subject it is obviously
safer to mingle with the genernl busi
ness public than to seek railroad sour
ces for information ; and, therefore, I
have dilligenily inquired of disinter
ested parties for the information I now
send you.
THE FAJ.LIXO OFF OF FKEIGIIT
ou the Pennsylvania lvnailroad from
Pittsburg to Philadelphia, and vice
versa, since this competition began,
has been so gnat that n general re
duction of force hu9 been made neces
sary —the discharge of train inen and
shop hands being uuusual at this ses
sion. The cause of this is that the
Baltimore and Ohio Kitilaoad is ship
ping goods and stock and carrying
passengers between Philadelphia and
Pittsburg so much cheaper than is of
fered by the Pennsylvania Central,
that more than two thirds of the
Ireight iu the trade, from PhilndeL
phialo the West, mid from the West
eastward, passes over the former road.
Passengers are carried from Washing,
ton to Pittsburg at fares lower than
they can go from Hamburg to that
city. It is very natural that tuch
cempetition attracts the trade in the
locality where it is carried on, and
while the Pennsylvania Railroad loos
es large quantities of freight and great
numbers of passengers, the Baltimore
and Ohio is the road which
LOOKS IMMENSE BCMB.
of money. Its increase of non-paying
business logically tends to increase of
loss —loss in wages and machinery,
and frightful loss in slock dividends.
It must never be lost eight of that the
Pennsylvania Railroad, from Phila
delphia to Pittsburg, traverses the
richest and most popular portion of
the Northern States, the trade along
the entire line of which is composed of
the heaviest and best-paying freight
carried by any railroad in the country
—freight which requires less cost
in handling, in loading and un
loading, than that carried by any road
in the country.
THE LOCAL TRAFFIC
of the Pennsylvania Railroud is far
inor- valuable than that of the Balti
more and Ohio, for the reason that the
former road runs through richer agri
cultural and mining regions, and is
populated along its entire length by

AMOTIIKK HARD FIGHT IN CUBA.
Late letters from Havana say the infor
ination obtainable about the recent bat
tle of Guasimas shows that it was one of
the hardest-contested fights that have ta
ken place between the insurgents and
Spaniards. Of the wou:id?d brought to
Havanna most nil have received their in
juries by the machete. They report that
there were over two hour's fighting at close
quarter-. Brigadier Arininitn, with about
men, cavalry, infantry, and artillery,
becoming aware of the massing oftiic in
surgents under Maximo Gomes, marched
forwnrd and on the loth encountered them
in large force.
The attack was i immediately begun by
the Cubans, so that Artninan had barely
time to form a square. placing hi* artillery
in the centre, the cavalry being ordered
to cut it* way through the enemy'* line*
and procure reinforcement* at l'uerlo
Principe. The cavalry wui fenrtully cut
up, ver3' few being left to bring the new*
of the critical poition of tbe Spanish cob
umn. These succeeded in reaching
Puerto Principe, their pursuer* close at
their liccl*. Brigadier Hasiones, with a
column of two thousand, started out, but
had hardly gone beyond the suburb* ot
Puerto Principe before he wa* attacked
by the Cubans, liasione* succeeded in
pressing on, and had another severe en
counter with the insurgent*, finally uni
ting hi* column with that of Arminan.
The lotse* of the Spnniald* were very se

The following particulars of tlie recant
inters icw hstwecn the representatives of
South Carolina and Ik* President, are fur- 1
nished by a Washington correspondent of;
tli* N. Y. Tribune .
When the delegation aant by tha Con
vention with tha VI alitor ial l.i Congress
appeared 111 \V aslntiglon several days ago,
there is good reason to balieve that tha
Preideiit tell kindly enough toward
them Ho told Secretary >ih that el
thougli he wa* going to Philadelphia on
Friday, ha would tuaka it a point to giva
ihem an audience before h* want ; and the
Secretary (who, as Prasident-tieneral of
the Cincinnati!, cordially sympathised
witli a delegation which included several
mambais of that famous aid order, among
thctn Gen. Jaiue* Suuinons, tha Vice-
Presidanl-Ganaral), wa* probably as much
surprised at anybody at the recaption
which the Seuth Carolinians finally met.
It seem* that sly Senator Patterson, who,
for rvasous of his ewn, did not raitsh
the welcome which taamod awaiting the
delegation, got access to the President a
few minutes before tha premised interview
and catted hie alleutian to tho garbled ex
tracts from Gary's speech. 11* tiuied his
visit su- well that he came aut of tha
Executive Mansion just as the delegation
entered it, end they were ushered into the
presence of General Grant while h* was
prubably stiil smarting from vexation
caused by the hitter and akuaive words
just read to him. His manner duting
the ceremony *f presentation plainly
showed the struggle betw sen ill-suppress
ed anger and a desire to be digni
fied and courteous.
The ilou. . D Verier, the spokesman
<il'the delegation, and oat of tha most pol
ished advocates of tha Charleston bar,
made a calm and brief but slrikiag and
very pathetic presentation of the shocking
jconditien of bis Nut*. The i'raeident lie
tened with marked attention and replied
-iowly hut with vigor and .without any of
that Invitation winch h* is said usually to
exhibit when making a speech. Hit
Wt-rd*. which have not to far been fully
reported in any of the [papers, were these :

ors were completely taken aback by kit
words, and stiil mora by tha uaplaasant
vehemence with which they were uttered.
Several *f the delegate* hastened to ex
plain the circumstances connected with
the speech, which I have already briefly
noted, but their axplaaalient teemed to
fall unheeded. The President met every

"History of the Grange Movement; ar, 1
the Farmers' War aginst Monopolies."
Being a full and authentic account ol
the struggles of the American Farmers
■ gainst the extortions of the Railroad
Companion With a History of the Rise
■nd Progress of tha Order of Patrons of'
• Husbandry. Published by the Nation
al Publishing Co, Philadelphia.
Of all the great questions now before the
public, that of the Farmers' movement fer
the redress of the wrengs from which they
have so long suffered, is, unquestionably,
the most important.
The author portrays in a masterly man
ner the evils of the great Railroad System
which have brought our present financial
troubles upon us; the gradual growth and
concentration of this vast pewsr into th#
hands of a few corporations ; tha false sys
tem of building railroads in advaneeof
the demand for them ; the terrible evils
arising from the reckless stock gambling
operations with the country has been curs
ed for the last eight years; the insolence
and tyranny with which the Railroads
tresltho public dependent upon them ; the
fonrful extent to which our Legislatures
anJ Courts of Justice have become corrupt
by the great corporations which seek to
control them ; the cause ol the great panic
of 1N73, and the events of that crisis are all
related with a graphicnass which loaves
nothing to be desirrd. The author gives a
startling account of the damages with
which reckless tailroad management has
asssilcd the nation in every feature of its
existsnce. His statements will attract uni
versal attention, and are worthy of the se
rious consideration of every citiaen of this
country.
Passing from ths Monopolists and their
outrages, the author takes up the cause of
the wronged and oppressed farmers, and
gives u. a detailed statement of the evils
from which the farming class
Ho analyxes the cause of these evils, and
•howa how and by whom the farmers are
robbod.
The work contain* a detailed and care
fully prepared history of the naw Order of
I'atrons of Husbandry. A complete ac
count of the organisation and objects of
the order is given; its laws and mode ol
procecdure are stated ; and each featura is
explained at full length.
It abound* in the iuot startling disclo
sures, and will, unque-lionably, make a
noise in the world. The book it ably writ
ten, and it i* a hold and vigoruu* plea in
beliVlf of the farmer* aud all who are op
pressed and robbed by the grasping Mo
nopolies which are giving us so much
trouble. The author treat* hit subject*
from a practical standpoint, and no una
who wishes to keep himself informed upon
this most important and axciteing question
of the day, cau afford to be without this
volume.
