By an oversight we emitted to men
tion last week that Col. John Kishel, of
Gregg, is the democratic nominee for
Jurv commissioner. Col. Rishel its so
well known all over the county that his
fitness and capability for this place, or
any other county office. need not bo set
forth here, lie has for over a quarter of
a century been one of the prominent
citizens of our couuty, and identified
himself with all its interest* and its pro
gress. 11a is a man'of intelligence and
Bonnd judgment and will make a good
officer.
The queerest thing about the Belknap
impeachment is that he confessed ,hi>
guilt while the I". P. Senate decided he
was not guilty. Now how is it? Ale
think Betknap should know best.
We are informed that during the post
week an unusual number of dead fiah
have floated down the river post this
place. It is not known what caused
their death. — (Lncitbvrg Journal
Why some one above threw a copy of
Have's letter into the river and that's
what kiiied'em.
The Republican has a correspondent
at Millheim who signs himself Mollie
Haguire. This is very appropriate, be
cause the Mollies did some service to the
Republican's party tost governor's elec
tion. That organization of murderers,
and terror of the coal-region, cast its
vetc solid for Ilartranftin consideration
of pardon for Mollies convicted of
crime*.
The curious little story told below by
a California paper is not a bit more
wonderful than the fact that some men
who profess to favor Reform and are
tired of Grantism nre now in company
with the Camcroup, Chandlers, Kembles
and the whisky ring supj>orting Hayes
who endorses the Grant administration.
Its a little queer, but so ia the following
told by the St. Helena Star:
A strange friendship has sprung up be
tween two very dissimilar animals at
Mrs. Straiton's. A black rabbit canie to
the place some three months ago and
took up its abode. Mrs. S. keeps on the
place a couple of cows, anil a short time
since the rabbit took up the strange
habit of sleeping with one ofthese cows.
It goes to the cow's wonted place of rest
waits her coming, and when arrived the
motherly cow licks the little protege
with much the same affectionate tender
ness that would be bestowed on a calf,
the rough tongue and tremendous licks
nearly raising the little animal off its
feet, and it the meanwhile bracing itself
with it* four feet to withstand the nre-s
--sure. Then little bunny puts its little
nose up to the cow's nose,; and appears
to kiss it, after which the rabbit nestle?
and goes to sleep. It is a singular bed
fellowship, the tiny bundle of fur and
ears of perhaps three or four pounds
with the unwieldy carcass of six hun
dred.
The Vast influence which can be exert
ed through the medium of the Post Of
fice, is placed in the hands of a man, who
in 1874 wrote to the editors of Republi
can newspapers, to keep prominently be
fore their readers "until after the elec
tion," the details of any scene of violence
in the Kouth of which they could get in
formation. The same thing is now be
ing repeated, the "outrages" being now
as then frequently manufactured for the
purpose. This is one cf the means by
which the administration fabricates
political capital, and great care should
be taken in reading of these Southern
horrors, at such times as the present.
"Reform is necessary in the Civil Ser
vice," says Governor Tilden, in his
famous Letter of Acceptance, and all the
people ratify the sentiment. Tilden br.s
as Governor of New York, enabled us to
see what he means by Reform, and the
means which he will adopt to encom
pass it. No thieves and public ."plan
derere will be permitted to hold office
with him in the Executive chair, and
even* one interested in the future of the
country will vote for Tilden and Hen
dricks at the coming election.
Our democratic neighbors over in Clin
ton on Tuesday, 13, made the following
excellent nominations: L. A. Mackey
for congress bv acclamation, S. R. Peale
for senate, A. "J. Quigley for assembly,
G. W. Batcheler for prothonotary, and
James W. Clark for register and recor
der.
The democrats of Mifflin county have
nominated the followingjexcellent ticket:
Congress, Hon. Andrew Reed, senate,
Col. John B. Selheiiner; assembly, Hon.
Joseph W. Parker; associate judges, Dr.
S. Belford, Reed Sample; jury commis
sioner, James Wray; director of the poor,
Wm. Wilson Oliver; coroner, N.J. Kudi
sill.
—Gov. Hartranft has appointed John
I. Irvin associate Judge, to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of Judge
Love. This is the best selection the
governor could have made from the re-<
publican ranks. "Judge" Irvin won't
sound so bad. We congratulate Judge
Irvin upon his appointment.
The radicals are just now trying to
make capital out of the subject of the
Bible in the schools. If any set of feh
lows need schooling in the Bible more
than any other, it is the radicals who
have been plundering the people whole
sale in every shape and form for the last
decade. It would have been a blessing
to the tax-ridden people of the country
had the Grant office-holders discharged
their duties upon Bible teachings then
there would have been no stealings, no j

The Kings rule the Senate now, as
they have all along ruled the Republi
can Congresses and Executive. Attack ,
a King and there will he a prompt Re
publican defense. Of all the Kings, the 1
vilest, except the Internal Revenue
Ring, is the Indian Ring. IVluno and
his set grew rich out of it by starving
Indiana,debauching tbeia with bad rum
and freezing thom with rotten blankets
and clothing. It supplied the arms and

There can be no doubt that Mr. Rlaim
acted with great magnanimity the other
day, when he forced hiniselt, though
buttling with sickness, to attend tlu
Convention at Augusta, and address his
friends. The burden of hi* speech was
that his followers should bury tlu
hatchet of discord, and fail int > line, to
support the Administration ticket in the
war that is now waging, lie himself
was willing to let bvsgones be by-gone*,
so far as liis Republican detractors were
concerned, and he wished them to do
the same. There was a necessity tor
this advice, but it is very problematical
whether the admirers of the honorable
gentleman can smother their feelings
sufficiently to follow it with any degree
>f ardor. They have for months been
watching the machinations of the trio.
Grant and his subservient instruments,
Morton and Conkling, us they waged,
their merciless and perfidious warfare
on the best and most courageous of their
associates. They saw their leader down
and trampled on by rivals who had no
cause of offence against him but his
superiority. They now see his wan fea
ture* and his w eakencd frame as he rise
frorn the sick bed upon which he was
prostrated through the duplicity ami
malice of these pretended friends. And
they cannot, at request even of him who
has had to endure these outrages, come
heartily forward to work for the advant
age of those men who have originated
and perpetrated all these injuries. They
may, and doubtless will, obey the party
. whip, to avoid too severe an application
of the lash upon their own lucks, but
they cannot push along the machine
with sufficient energy to move it very
far.
Congress adjourned last week and the
members have gone "to their homes.
The work of the House will stand a* a
monument of people's service in Re
form by the democratic members. Of
the senate the Sun says of that republi
can body that it has stood in the way of
all substantial reforms throughout the
eight months and a half that Congrc -
has been in session. There is not a
redeeming feature in the proceedings of
the majority.
Every measure of the Session looking
to retrenchment, economy, and improve
ment in the civil service, has originated
in the Democratic House. If measures
of this class have been finally passed, it
has happened only after a protracted
struggle, in which the Democrats of the
House stood squarely up to the work,
while the Republican leaders in the
Senate did their best to defeat them. Ia
the entire history of the session there
cannot be found a solitary exception to
this sweeping remark. In this respect
the present Senate has made the most
infamous record in the annals of that
txxly.
The Republicans now have a majority
of nine in the Senate. The terms of
seventeen of the Republican members
expire in March next. There is every
reason to believe that the Democrats
will secure enough of these seats to give
them a majority of two in the next Ken
ate. Then, with a majority of reformer
in each branch of Congress, Jaud with
Sam Tilden in the White House, the
country will turn over a new leaf in
deed.
A correspondent inquires whether we
do not elect a president judge this fell.
We answer, no; Judge Mayer's time ruu
two years yet, and as lie has made one
of the very best judge*, wc expect the
people will re-elect him by "*j>ontanoou
combustion."
The Constitutions of twenty-eight of
the States recognize the existence of
God, says an exchange. And we may
add if .they didn't, God would exirt
nevertheless.
The order of Secretary Cameron to
General Sherman is worth the careful
attention of every American citizen. It
is an order to hold all the troops not
absolutely required for Indian service
in readiness to move. As everybody
knows, there is no war nor rumor of war,
foreign or domestic, in the country.
There is no legitimate use for troops any
where in the country. What this order
means, and all it can mean, is that the
Administration means to use troops to
prevent free elections in the Southern
.States. It was a cowardly trick to hold
back such an order until the adjourn
ment of Congress, and then issue it. It
will do the Administration no good and
the Republican party no good. The exe
cution of it would do both great mischief.
The mere threat ougld to arouse the in
dignation ofall decent citizens, whatever
their politics.
DEATH OF SPEAKER KKBlt.
Rockbridge Alum Springs, W. Va., Au
gust 10.—Mr. Kerr died about 7 this overl
ing. His laid hours were painle-s, a3 lie MI
much desired. llis composure was ro
innrkable as it was lioroic. lie was thor
oughly content, prepared for the unseen
world, lie was concious and intelligent,
gentle and brave to the end. His disease
was consumption of the bowels, but toward
the last the lungs were involved. He lifts
been for day past, in fact, a disembodied
intellect—a mere skeleton. His body will
be taken to New Albany on Monday.
The "fence-riding" editors have all
got down on the side of civil government
since the appearance of Don Cameron's j
letter ordering Gen. Sherman to put the
South under martial law. Such uncom
promising Radical journals as the New
York Tribune and Pittsburg Dispatch
deplore the action as unwise and uncall
ed for. The Chicago Times, Independ
ent supporter of Tilden, thinks that it
lias destroyed the last chance f< r
Hayes.

as hare as a stubble field. They confine
their present ravages to grain; but tiuor

it is considered that TRIO of these ej.gs
have been found in a square inch of soil,
and 1,340 in a space six inches square,
the prospect is rather discouraging in
that section for farmers, many of whom
are now raising their firstcr >p, and need

but an average in these northwestern

pecially corn, but it is dubious now,
while that of tlio time to come, when
the eggs already deposited shall become
developed, is worse yet.

The di-tresa now felt by tho people in all

hi.- i'- ptiticipal k*use in tho enormous

many things are under thi ir range in fru- j

war. Va-t nias-e* of currency lie in the
banks unused A year and it half ago the
it-gal tenders were nt their largest volume,
and the twelve millions since retired have
been replaced by fre*h issuct of fifteen
millions bank notes. Inthn meantime the

The public mind will nn longer accept
shams; it has suffered enough front illu
sions. An insecure policy increases dis
trust. An unstable policy increases un
certainty. The people need to know that
Iho government i* moving in the direc

that it i< doing so through prudent, safe

. ire t i inflict no now sacrifice on the busi
nes *of the country. Then the inspiration
~| new hope anil well founded confidence
will hasten tho restorative processes of the
nation, arid prosperity *vi|l begin to re
turn.
Tho St. Louis convention concludes its
expression in regard to the currency by b
ili'i larntiun of its conviction aalo tluv prar
i:, al re-uIU of the system well devised
ami above nil intrusted to competent
hands forexci ution, creating at no time an
artificial scarcity of currency and ut no
liino alarming tho public mind into a
withdrawal ol that vn-ter machinery of
credit by which ninety five per cent, of all
business trnii!o tioi * are performed, n sys
tem open, public and inspiring general
confidence, would, from tho day of its
adoption, bring healing on its wings lo nil
cur liarnostd industries, set in motion the
wheels of commerce, manufacturing and
the mechanic art, restore employment to
labor and renew in all it* natural sources
the prosperity of tho people. Tho .gov
eminent of tho United Slates in my ••pin
ion can advance to a resumption of specie
payments on its legal tender notes by grud
:iri and safe processes tending to relieve
die present business distress. If charged
:>y the people with the administration of
lie executive office, 1 should deem it a
luty so to exercise lite powers with which
t has been or may be invested by con
rress as best ami soonest to conduct the
•ountry to that beneficial result.

cough, pains in the side and brea-l, night
sweata, sure throat ; my bowels were cos

ach so very vveuk that my physician was
nt a loss to know what to do fur me, as
everything 1 used in the slmpe of medi
cine was rejected ; spit different times a
pint of blood. 1 remained for months in
this awful condition, and gave up all hopes
of ever recovering. At this time you re
commended tho u*e of your Syrup and

comfort and allay the cough, strengthen
ed and healed my lungs ; in short, it has
made a perfect euro of rue. Any person
doubting the truth of tho abovo statement,
