Senate, iu place of Stanly Mathews, who helped to plan the stealing of Louisiana for Hayes, and then got Sherman's place in the senate, upon the letter's appointment to a cabi net position. It seem, pretty certain that Mr. Pendleton will be the next Ohio senator. Congress met last Monday in extra -cssion. It waa called mainly to make an appropriation for the regular aruiy. An ex-radical U. 8. Senator, and ex. assistant Secretary of the Treasury has been brought to shame and to prison. In the courts of the Dist. of Columbia, a few days ago the jury in the case of ex- Senator and ex-Assistant Secretary of •he Treasury Sawyer, ex-CVmmiieioncr of Customs Haines and Frank Brooks, of New York City, brought in a verdict of guilty on the charge of procuring the pavmentofa fraudulent claim of $57,- 000 against the Government, connected with a cotton transaction. Bandow, a clerk in the Treasury at the time the claim was paid, was acquitted, and Gen eral D. P. Roddy, an ex-Confederate cavalry general, who was jointly indict ed, forfeited his bail and is beliaTed to be in Europe. Their verdict was, a great surprise, and created a decided ripple about the hotels and other public pla<-es where the convicted persons were an well known. The jury recommended Mr. Sawyer to the mercy of the Court, as it did not appear from the testimony that he received any of the money, but was under improper influences. The penalty for the offense is from or.e to five years'imprisonment at hard labor, - r a tine of not less than SI,OOO nor more than $5,000. The prisoners were re manded to jail pending their sentence and a motion for a new trial. Sawyer, who, in his capacity of Assistant liecro tary of the Treasury, ordered the claim to be paid, wept like a child on being taken to jail, and it is said that he has been used as a scapegoat for all of the vultures of the Grant Administration and secured but little plunder for him self. During the past few months he figs been living hare in very reduced circum stances. From 1868 to 1873 he was a Senator from South Carolina, and soon thereafter was made Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. During the war he was tin* teacher of a normal school in Charles ton, but in 1864 was sent through the lines to bis old home in Worcester County, Mass. Haines, who was Com missioner of Customs, is a Pennsylvanian and was recommended by Cameron. Brooks ha* been identified with the seal lock job and generally beeu engaged in Mii iwing claims on the Treasury. The next trial is that of General Negley, ex- Congressman from Pittsburg, Pa., on the charge of procuring the payment of the bogus Witowaki claim. "Grinding the People Between the Upper and Nether Millstones," is the heading of an article in which the Gro cer* Price-Current says that a recent de rision of the U. 8. Supreme Court has aroused the fears and indignation of the whole milling interest of the country. It appears that there are two processes of grinding wheat in the manufacture of Hour, styled, respectively, high and low grinding. The former method is regard ed by all prominent millers as absolute* ly indispensable to auccesaful milling and was introduced into this country in 1871 from Europe, where it had been in use for nearly half a century. Some shrewd speculators, in rummag ing through the archives of the Patent Office at Washington, discovered the ex istence of an old patent, which had never been used, and quietly succeeded in obtaining ita re-iastiance, with specifi cations which covered all machines now in use for high grinding in this country- In furtherance of their project, they then instituted a suit (against a straw man, who, of course, made no substantial de fense, and finally they obtained a deci sion in their favor from the U. 8. Su preme Court. They now propose to sp-ant licenses to such millers as will re cognize the validity of their patent, and to prosecute all who will not submit to their exactions. Some idea of the mag nitude of their demands may be obtain ed from the fact that, for a license for each and every ran of stones $6,000 is •eqoired, and as there are 6,000 runs of stone in the United States, these paten tees would receive the handsome sum of $36,000,000. It is said that a committee of the most prominent millers of the country will petition Congress for relief. We understand that suits have been in stitnted against prominent millers in Brooklyn, Richmond and Minnesota. How high ia Ohio ? Oh, high, 0! Walk, chalk, ginger bloc ; You, Stanly Mathews, too. Twenty thousand 'gainst you went, For fixing up the Fraudulent. Forney's Press has been sold to a stock company. John C. Fremont is in pecuniary em barrassment, and some of his personal property is being sold in consequence. Let him take the "wooly horse" around for a show. Coal is getting cheaper. Rival com binations are the cause. Good for the poor. The Massachusetts Woman Suffragists have resolved that the woman suffrage party has no faith in republicans or democrats, Ob, dear, then who will they have to foot their milliner hills? There seems to be a revival of raining ' roubles. The Scranton strikers are ex cited to a high pitch on account of the employment of non-strikers. More troops were telegraphed for and were soon on their way to that section. Russian soldiers are already suffering from cold weather. The Czarowieh de clares it is impossible to winter in Bul garia, unless IlusUhuk or some other fortress surrenders. Our Indian wars have never been any thing but expensive. Every red man killed, ha* cost the government about SIO,OOO knd perhaps 4 or live while men. At Washington, it ia mid, the victory last week of Gen. Miles over Chief Joseph, they think ia dearly bought at a coat of so many valuable lives. Captain Hall, who was killed, was a New \ork man, and served through the war tu> an olhcer in the Seventh New 5 ork ( Aval rv. He was a valuable officer. Lieu tenant Riddle ia a member of the wealthy Riddle fauiilv, of Philadelphia, and only received his oomwiaaion on the Mat of August last, having graduat ed from West Point this summer. It was his first engagement, having been with Geueral Miles but a few days. 11 ithin a little more than a year the Seventh Galvnlry haa lost eighteen officers in ac tion, and those who have friends still alive in that regiment are petitioning the War Department to transfer them to some Other Held of duty. There seems to be an inkling of better timos—a brightening prospect for trade. Any thing in thi* direction w ill be bail ed with joy by the people of the United States. Our own opinion is that we have seen the worst, and that any change must be for the belter. In agricultural district* like Centre county, wo really do not experience "hard times in the sense in which *t is felt in cities ami minjng and manufacturing districts, where the bulk of the population de pends upou its daily bread for to mor row upon what wage* it haa earned to day—living from hand to month. \ot we here are disposed to complain, lhc manufacturing and mining districts have actual starvation among them be cause there is uo employment. While labor is not over plentiful among us in the purely agricultural districts, vet eve ry man has enough to eat, and does not see starvation ahead. Our toil will al wgys viol J as much and more than is needed Aw our immediate consumption —hence we are always on the safe aide, although our products may not bring the prices we would have, yet we have something. But suppose our fields would no longer yield us the staff of life, and there were no other fields to turn to to earn our daily bread, then we would be in the situation of the thousands in the districts where mines and manufac tories and Airnaces stop. We would be hold starvation with sure and steady stride approaching to overwhelm wife and little ones. In estimating the business |>rosj>ects of the fall season, one of our recent New York dailies says that it is important to keep in view the condition of affairs in the Western States, containing over one third of the whole population of the country, and furnishing in money value a still higher ratio of the total national product. As has already been stated in these columns, the value of tire aggregate wheat crops of nine States —Minnesota, lowa, Wisconsin, Kansas, Michigan, In diana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennesee— for the year 1877, would, if sold in the country at ninety cents per bushel, ex ceed by >86,400,000 the value of the wheat crope of the same States for the yearlS76: while other grains will be equally abundant in all these States. This enormous crop is of itself the strongest guarantee of better times. The whole country will be benefited not only by a reduced cost of the first neceeaaries of subsistence, but also by an increased demand for other commodities. Inas much as an ample graiu crop usually carries with it a large pork crop, we have almosfca certainty of an exceptionally supply of the staple food products of the country. The agricultural West has suf fered much leas from the influences as sociated with the panic than the manu facturing and commercial groupofStates. It has known comparatively little of losses resulting from the shrinkage of manufacturing property, from the pros* tration of the iron industry, or from the collapse in the coal trade. It liaa not been appreciably hurt by the failure of newly constructed railroads or the de cline in thestoeksof the older ones. The capital which covered the West with a net-work of iron roads came inoatly from the Eaat and from abroad. The disasters of the railroads have resulted in some positive advantage to the West, through reduced transportation charges and consequent increased profits on its crops. While the Western people buy all Eastern commodities at greatly re duced rates, their own products have not fallen in anything like the same ratio. Indeed, the West is not only prosperous, but in a situation that warrants our ex pecting from it a valuable fall and win ter business. Its healthier condition diffuses a healing influence through the whole countrv, and with its enormous crops, the benefits it confers upon other sections, and more especially upon this city, the great distributing center and counting bouse of the country, will be more marked during the next twelve months than they lravc been at any time since the crash of 1873. Another of the carpet bag robbers of South Carolina has been arrested. Nilea G. Parker, ex State Treasure was arrested in Jersey City and lodged in the county jail on a requisition from Governor Hampton of South Carolina, charging him with plundering the Btate. He says he is willing to turn State's evi dence. He has resided in Jersey City for two years. Parker has already told a great deal about the doings of his brother thieves, Patterson, Chamberlain et a!., and will let a good many more cats out of she bag just as Tweed has of late been doing. A "SQCAEB TIMBER" REPLV.— The Renovo correspondent of the Philadel phia Commonwealth, among other mat ters in alluding to Col. N'oyes, our nomi nee for Btate Treasurer, relates the fol lowing: A few years ago the Methodist Church in this village (Westport) was sold at HberifTssale, on a mechanic's lien, and was purchased by Colonel Noyes, and has since been used by any denomina tion that choose to do so, he keeping up the repairs at his own expense. Some time ago a clergyman was dining with him after service, and incidently inquir ed of the Colonel if he belonged to the church. To which be, with dry humor, replied : "No, sir; the church belongs to me." The correspondent in question con tinues as follows: "I remember distinct ly the first time—some ten years ago— that 1 had the honor of meeting him. 1 had some slight business to transact with him, and went to his residence in West port to see him. I was there informed that I should probably find him at or near the sawmill. On reaching the null I saw several men up to their waists in the water of the dam at work among the logs, and inquired of one of them where I could find Colonel Noyes, and wns considerably surprised when I was informed that 1 was then talking to that individual. Not many men of his wealth and standing and of his age will be found working in mud and water as n common laborer. But there are few men like "Old Square Timber. Judge Trunkey stands at the head of the democratic ticket, and the vote for him wilt indicate the real strength of the parties in the state, tic is one of the ablest, end purest jurists in the com monwealth, a man of whose virtues and talents the party has just cause to he proud. There is no reason why he should not receive every democratic vote in the commonwealth. Fourteen tobacco manufacturers, In dieted in the Culled State* Circuit ourt at Greensboro, N.

They were nearly all convicted and -cut to the penitentiary, but were BO O all pardoned out by Grant. Whether these crooked tobacco chnpa will fare its wt-b under llaye remains to he seen.

M'sll, Colonel, the fellows won't fight worth a tint this time, we'll bet the bi-vulves with you on that. Ohio has Jtutuked you all ever so high, O. Yer pone up sere. Hayes gets a lift after all. The Black Hills republicans endorsed him. IL. is just what would be looked for fivui there. In the Black Hills country tury 1 dy goes on the 8 to 7 principle. The miners of the Lehigh \ alley UK. Co. on Friday refused by a vote to g<> to work without an advance of wages. We should like very much to see them get an advance of wages, but if they can get along without working they can do what some folks can't. The elections in France were held hi- Sunday, which is the usual dav for he !d ing elections in that country. Wm. C. Oilman, the forger f insur ance scrip, in New York, who was in dicted by the Orand Jury surrendered himself on Friday last, anil appeared be fore liecorder Hackett, whero l.e plead guilty and was sentenced to fivo years in the State Prison. Oilman's counsel read a statement in extenuation, in which Oilman says the decline ; n business, bad investments, heavy expenses both business and do* mestic, and personal extravagance had betrayed him. He loved better to giro awav money than spend it on him elf. !llia thoughts and interests were more with charitable works. He himself was to blame for the expouses at home rnd in business. His wife never persuaded him to any extravagance. From tise time he began business he had placed in his hands by friends who trusted him implicitly, sums ranging from ne hun* dred dollars to twenty thousand dollars, on interest at seven per cent. He never speculated or lost or won any money by any wager. He made investments in enterprises which promised well, but all turned out bad. Old "Extra Hazardous" Passmorc is the nickname the campaign gives the Radical candidate for Auditor General. He is an insurance agent, and "extra hazardous" is a risk no company wants to take, and nobody wants to pay them enough to take it. As l'assmore goes around, he carries with him the mark "Extra Hazardous!" The people wi 11 not take him. It's too greet a risk, lie is a ring candidate, will help conceal their crookedness, and perpetuate the authority which has made the State Treasury a sink of corruption, evaded all efforts to get a fair examination into its management, and defied the law re quiring regular and honest statements of its condition. A man like Bchell is what is needed in the Auditor General's office. The people want a safe risk this time, and will refuse old "Extra Hazard ous" by a big majority. • FROM WASHING TOX. The democratic house caucus at Wash ington, on 13, nominated Batnl J. Ran dall of Pa., for speaker. The vote stood Randall 207, Goode 123, Sager 1?. The nomination was then made unani mous. Sergeant-nt-Arms Thompson was then nominated by acclamation forrc-electiou to that office. ! Col. Adams was re-nominated for clerk, and Col. Polk of Mo., was nomina ted for doorkeeper. There are r'eporls in cfrcolation that two or three republican senators have intimated to friends that they feel it to be their duty to make im mediate objection to the general policy of Mr. Hayes and that this inclination will find early practical assertion. The presence in Washington of several prom inent republicans, who do not hesitate to announce their difference of views with the administration, is regarded as lending substance to this declaration. But positive authority from those men tioned as awaiting the organization of congress to make war upon the adminis tration is not easily obtained. On account of the interruption of cable communication, there was no news on Monday of the elections held In France on Sunday.

JOSEPH'S BAND CAPTURED. Over Sixty Soldiers Killed and Wounded. The Casualties Among the Nei Perces. Fort Benton, Montana, Octobers, via, Helena. October 9.—A courier arrived from General Miles' battle fleld one hour ago, bringing the intelligence that Joseph with his entire band had surren dered. The capitulation occurred at 2 o'clock p. m. on the 6th inst. The savages gay* up their guns and ammunition, passing in solemn review before General Miles, and accepting an unconditional surrender. Ihe troops at once occupied the Indian intrcncbuicnU, and the first victory over the Indisns for two years was signalised In the charge upon the Indian camp the first day sixty-four officers and men were killed and wounded. After the camp had been currendored, and the soldiers bad se cured defensive positions, only four cssu* allies occurred. The soldiers closed in upon the savages slowly but surely after the first day, all the time extending IheiV line of rifle pits. It was the purpose of General Miles to lose no more men in the attack. How admirably tbo plan succeeded is already known. On the last day of the j tight the troops had succeeded in securing s position which commanded the stream 'which flowed in front of the riflepits occu pied by the Indians, and had the battle lusted another day their supply of water would have been cut off and a surrender become imperative. On the fourth day ot the fight Joseph raised the while flag for the third lime, and through an interpreter who advanced toward his camp, offered to surrender provided they were allowod to keep their arms. General Miles sent word back that they must surrender without any resarve, and the battle was renewed. The while flag was displayed again on the fifth and last day of the engagement, when Joseph ap peared in front of his lines, and advanced to meet Miles, to whom he tendered his guns. Ho was followed by sixty warriors, who also turned ovor their arms and shook hands with General Miles as they passed.
