Milesburg borough is carried bv the Greonbwk party by a majoritr "of twenty-three ; Snow Shoe has also gone Greenback by a large ma jority. Republican love*"for the negro was only a aham, a# democrats always con tended. Here is the latest evidence In the strong republican county of Ijiwrence the republicans nominated a colored man named Stewart for the of fice of Associate judge, and he met the usual fate of colored men by Jwing de feated at the polls. The republican stale ticket has s4l majority in the county, hut Stewart ia beaten by 160. Clinton, Mr. Noyes' county, gave old square timber a good send off, her vote is as follows: Noves 1,441 majority, Trunkev :>- majority, and SeheU 1,016 majority. - • —#*• ♦ "* The infidel Ingereoll is to be rewarded • by Hayes and has been offered, indirect ly, the mission to Germany.

It remarks that Senator Wallace's bill to provide a long bond bearing four per cent, interest, for the investment of savings, is worthy of careful consideration. Such a bond, if made accessible to the general public, issued in denominations as low as and sold for the greenback equivalent of par in gold, would no doubt be eagerly taken by people who have lost faith in savings banks and in all forms of cor porate securities. And even little Cameron county went against Cameronism. For the first time siuce its organisation it went democratic on the state ticket, and the voters who changed its political complexion are de termined that it shall not again find a place in the radical column. The fol lowing are the majorities on the stale ticket: Noyes, 275; Schell, 104: Trunkey S3. Mr. Cochran, democratic candidate for county treasurer, has 522 majority and Mr. Hvde, candidate for district at torney, 179. The democratic gain in this county since the presidential election last year, i* .~*l, Congress is likely to make some change in the patent laws— there is cer tainly room for improvement. Restric tion is needed to prevent patentees hav ing altogether too much monopolizing advantage. A bill is now before congress to regu late the granting of patents. It provides hat hereafter they shall be granted for i term of ten years, but may, after the expiration of that time, be extended for a further period of five years, under the provisions of law applicable to the ex tensions of patents before extensions ceased to be authorized. The total dura tion of any patent, however, is not to ex ceed fifteen year*. Talmage offered prayers for the defeat of John Morrisaey. Morriaey was elect* ed by 3000 over Schell. Morrissey is an anti-Tammany democrat, but was sups ported by the Times and Tribune and had the republican vote, with a faction of democrats. The latest strike on the carpet just now is that of the carpet weavers of Philadelphia. AH the strikes we have had—and there were many and iearful ones—have occurred when the country was under radical government by whom ail the while there was a promise of bet ter times for the workingmen. THE RESULT. The result in Pennsylvania, with near ly all official returns in, gives the ing democratic majorities: Trunkey 7,500; Schell 9,300; Noyes 10,300. M'Clelian's majority in New Jersey is 13,042. In Philadelphia the democratic city ticket has 1500 majority. The greenback-labor vote in the state will reach between 50,000 and 00,000. E VER YBOD Y HA PP Y IS PENNS Yl- VASIA. From the New -York Tribune. Everybody in Pennsylvania seems to be happy: Administration Republicans because the Camerons were rebuked: Cameron Republicans, because President Hayes was rebuked, and the Democrats, because they won. The Wrold in its comments upon the recent elections, says .* The second impression resulting from a calm survey of the elections is that the progress of the I>emocratic party to power, though slow and measured, is as irresistible as fate. The Democracy must now be considered the dominant party in the nation. It had a popular majori ty even at tne last Presidential election, ft has since then made sure of the whole of the South and of the great Central States from the borders of New England to Indiana, and is now in control in all parta of the Union save the extreme West and the extreme East. In the position, importance and wealth of the •ointof derisive importance gained, hut this alone was worth all other advantage* that could be played for. The victory in that State, like the October victory in Ohio, virtually assures to the Democracy with the retention of New York, a per u ncnt occupation of the tnree first tesofthe Union. Gov. Williams, of Indiana, Las ap pointed D. W. Vorbeea T T . S. Senator, For the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Morton.

The elections held allien the inaugura tion of Hayes as I'rosidant, have reunit ed in a deserved and unmistakable re bake of the manner in which ho w:w installed into an office to \\ hlch ho never was elected. The people of the I nited States have shown thereby that they do not endorse fraud, and if the braud who now occupies the presidential chair,had a giant of honesty or aalf-reapect in hia bosom, he would vacate the place, and not permit his name to go down to pos terity as the fraudulent uturning Imurd President, Pennsylvania, the second state in the Union, by a majority of over 10,000 last week, put her condemnation upon the disgraceful 8 to Tconapiracy. The whole democratic state ticket has been elected; the treasury ring that has gambled w th tiie public monies, has been defeated, and honest men are chosen to take care that the funds be not misappropriated and squandered in private apeculaiiou. Atnoa C. Moves w ill Iw a trusty custodian of the people'a taxes, and an honest ac count will be rendered by him. whereby the people can know that they are no longer plundered, Mr. Noyes belong* to the old school of democrats who know no other principle but that of right aud honesty. Mr. Schell, the uew Iv elected demo cratic Auditor tieneral, will not i>as fraudulent claim# such as were winked at by his radical preJecessora, ol which the Evans emhesalement wss # sample, and by which the tax payers of the state were robbed of nearly lmll a million dollars that went into the pock eta of Kemble, Bob Mackcy, and the balance of the "addition, division and silence" crew of politicians who have enriched themselves at the expense of the tax-pay ere. The grand democra'ic triumph, last week, was a rebuke, then, of the presidential steal as well as of the treasury ring. - New York rebuked the fraudulent president business. Maryland, \ irginia New Jersey, and other states spoke in the same tone. We expect to see the good work of democratic triumphs continue until the country has complete ly driven from power and plan# the men who rule and govern by fraud, and who defeated the will of the people by ns* of the bayonet, which was the only instru ment that thus far upheld them •'A great newspaper in every sense of the phrase" is the judgment of journal ists and the people upon the Philadel phia Weekly Times. Not yet a year old this weekly paper lias achieved a suc cess in circulation as well as in influence that is without a parallel. It embraces eight pages or fifty-six columns, full to overflowing with readable matter clean ed from every part of the wide fields of Politics, I-iterature Science and Art. The editorial page abounds in crispcom tuents on the news of the day, embody ing careful and independent judgment fearlessly expresaed. The departments relating to Home and Society and the Farm and Harden make it welcome at every fireside, and offer from week to week temptations that are irresistible to the scissor* of an editor. Fiction, poetry and tales of travel and adventure find a place in every number. But the great distinctive feature of the Philadelphia Weeklv Times is its current series of chapters on the Unwritten History of the War. Krerv one of these is Iroru the pen of a prominent actor In the late conflict between the States, and descri bes some phase of the war that came within his own personal observation. No newspaper ever before presented such an array of contributors as appear in this department. Among them are such men oa Hon. Carl Schnrx. Hon. A. U. Curtin, (iencral Joseph K. Johnston, General Joseph Hooker. General James Longstreet, Hon. John W. Forney, Gen eral G. T. Beauregard, General B. Frank lin, Hon. John H. Keacan. Hon. Simon Cameron, General Richard Taylor. Gen eral John C. Fremont, and such women as Mrs. Stonewall Jackson, Mrs. E. E. Briggs ("Olivia"), and Mrs. Jessie Ben ton Fremont. The prospectus of the Weekly Time* appears in another column. At this season when people are selecting their newspapers for the next year, no one should fail to send for and examine a specimen copy of this truly remarkable journal. SR. JUSTICE STRONG. Tne Hon. William Strong of Pennsyl vania, is one of the Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the United State*. He was one of the fifteen members who constituted the Electoral Commission through whose Action Rutherford B. Hayes was declared to be elected Presi dent of the United States. Had Judge Strong, as a member of that Cuuituission voted the other war, Mr. Hayes would have been excluded from the office of President. It is therefore to the vote of Judge Strong that Mr. Hayes owes his office. fThe Commission consisted of fifteen, of whom, leaving Judge Strong in doubt, seven were for Mr. Hayes and seven were against him. Thegrand re sult depended upon the way Judge Strong should vote. Under these cir cumstances, and with such consequences hanging upon his vote, Judge Strong made up nis mind to vole for Mr. Hayes. It now appears, however—and it ap pears by a letter under his own hand that in arriving at thisconrhiajon, Judge Strong was governed by a strictly technical rule, and that although he cast the determining vote in favor of Mr. Hayes for President, be does not believe and never did believe, that Mr. Haves was lawfully elected to that office ! The view taken by Judge Strong was that Congress has *no right to inquire into State elections for State electors; that the Electoral Commission had no more power then Congress; and so he voted for Hayes although he feared a great wrong had been perpetrated by the Louisiana Returning Board! Allth's fully appears in a letter ad dressed by Mr. Justice Strong to an old personal friend of his, the lion. George W. Jones, of Tennessee, and which has been communicated to the| New York Sun by Mr. Jones. It is as follows "WASH i XGTOII, Feb. 26.1877. 'The Uon. George W.Jones—My Dear Sir : I was a Democrat when you and I were together in Congress. I am a Dem ocrat now. I hold lo all the opinions the State Rights Iemocrata have always held, and which the acknowledged lead ers of the party have avowed up to the present winter—never more clearly than in 1873 to 1875. "I do not believe that Congress ha* any electitntional right to inquire into State constitutions for State electors. "Congress has of late years interfered quite too much with the States. The Electoral Commission has no more pow er than Congress has, and I think it would be a most dangerous usurpation, were it to do wbat the Ktates alone have a right to do even to cure what I fear was a great wrong of the Ixiuisiana He turning Board, "I cannot doubt that such will be your opinion when you reflect to what the as sertion of such a power would lead. It would place the right of the States, res pecting the choice of electors, at the mercvofthe Federal Government, and be the greatest stride ever made toward centralization. "Bettersuffer a present evil than open such a door, better than abandon all the time honored principlea of the Demo cratic party. "I am yours, very respectfully, "W. STKOJUI."

In the hot vote the republicans wsro left without utiles, There has been a long dispute be tween the physicist* and mathematicians on the one hand, and the geologists and biologists on the other, as to the age of the earth, or rather, since that is equally involved, the ago of the sun. I'r. ( roll, tl.o distinguished scotch c' K>git, bus re -cntlv offered a theory which i- not altogether new, but admits 01 ->une novel arguments, and which may sereoall i r --ties to the dispute, ltegimung with a review of the different theories as to the sun's heat, he rejects the combustion thcorv as totally inadequate, since it the un were all a tuana or hurtling coal, it would not last over fi.ttOO years the chemical theory does not prolong the duration sufficiently ithe meteoric theo ry will not serve; the only remaining explanation is the gravitation or con idenaation theory. This suppose* that the materials of the solar system were originally a nebula, extending through a space many times greater than the orbit of Neptune. The falling together, the condensation of this amount of mat ter, it can be mathematically shown, would supply enough heat to keep the -tin at its* present temperature for 20,- 000,000 years. Unfortunately, that pori ,h! is not sufficient for the geologist. He demands at least 100,000,Owyear* for the changes of the earth's surface, am| would prefer twice that length of time. The arguments of the geologist are almost unanswerable; those of the biologist whotsplievo* in evolution tend to the -ame point-ao far as they go. lhvfcaeor Troll says that there is away out of this difficulty, by supposin ; that the nebula was not cold but not. If you supoo-e it hot enough to start with, you w ill have beat enough to carry yon through. Obviouslv it is just as easy to suppose a hot n elm laas a cold one. Hut I'rofc-aor Troll proposes to provide for this origi nal heat. If the solar system had origi nally consiated of two masses, each of half the density of the whole, at some immeasurable "distance apart, and they fell foul of each other owing to their mutual gravitation, they would strike with a sjmed of 274 miles per second. If their motion was stopped by the concus sion, an amount of heat would de devel oped sufficient to convert the w hole into a nebula that w oukl take 50,000,000 years to cool. This is decidedly an improve ment on the ccld nebula. Hut this sup poses that tfle eomponrnt halves, before thev started on their wny to a collision, had no motion, Let us suppose that they were moving beforehand at the rate of 202 miles per second, and that this speed was added to what they got by gravitating toward each other ; then we get, when they struck, a nebula ex tending beyond Neptune, and with heat enough for a sun of 100,000,000 year*' duration. If you insist ugon 200,000,0U0 you must give the original musses a speed of 67ti miles jwr second, before hand. It will be objected that no such motion lias been observed in space. Even the planets do not make such fa-t time; the earth, for instance, going only a thousand miles in a minute. The fixed stare whose motion has been ascertained travel very much slower. Hut Professor Troll says the fixed stars are those that have gone through the collision proce**. and have lost their motion. The new hypothesis goes behind the ordinary nebular theory in point of time, giving an explanation for the formation of the nebula-. But it presupposes that there may be vast, cold, invisible masses of matter rushing through apace with such velocity that their mere touch would convert our globe into red hot gases anil distribute it through infinite space. The conception is not incompatible with the sudden ilaming out of a new star and its conversion into a nebula, as seems to have been the case with the Schmidt star in Cygnus; but the facta in that re markable case were probably not known to Professor Troll at the time his essay was written. DESPERATE ExiOOXTEB WLTII FOCB lli.AI KKNCD VILAAIW.—Friday NIGHT Mr. Samuel Kemmerer, son of \\ . B. Kero merer, proprietor of the well known flouring mill located about midway between Milton and Watsontown, work ed at some repairs in the mill until about 2 o'clock on Saturday uiorniug. He had tinished at that hour and was washing his hands when the mill door opened and in stepped a man and pre* seated a pistol to his face and demanded flour or his life. It may be imagined that Mr. K. was a little surprised at the thus earlv calling of the customer to say nothing of the manner in which he made bis wants knowtk Before Mr. K. had time to reply, the blackened Texan styled individual proceeded to lay hold of a sack of flour but was told that had been sold but he would be given some out of a bin in another part of the mill and invited him to go along and get it. After lowering the light of the lamp. Kemmerer started, followed by the pis tol flourisher and on nrriving at the designated place, Mr. K. picked up a flour stamper and instantly turned around ami with one blow of the instru ment felled his assail a tit. to the floor and tben proceeded to belabor him in a man ner in strict conformity to the require ments of the occasion. The noise pro duced aroused a large dog in the mill which came to the scene of combat. About this time the door again opened and another man entered. The dog thinking no doubt, that lie would take a hand along with the rest, pounced upon customer So. 2 and camo off victorious, in as much as ho got his man down and drew blood quite profusely, as indicated bv his month and the quantity discover ed on the floor of the mill after daylight. Next upon the scene came two' more men who drove the dog off and dragged his and Mr. K's victim from the mi Hand placet! them in a wagon standing near and drove off at a rapid rate. Mr. K. says he does not know to what extent heiniured hie man with the flour-stam per, but supposes that lie must be cut and bruised very much. At lost accounts there was no clue to the whereabouts of the narty. Their faces were all black ened as above stated and were not re cognized.—Daily Miltonian. During the sickness of Senator Mor ton, Dr. Tbompoon, his physician, receiv ed remedies from all parts of tho coun try, each sender being convinced that his or her remedy would be certain to cure by giving tone to the Senator's stomach so that it would retain food. It is estimated that one hundred and twenty thousand children have been made orphans by the famine in India, and the British Wesleyan Society are trying to raise a fund for support of three or four hundred of thetn, at the rate of twenty-five dollars a year for each one. Senator I'atteraon'a case does not grow brighter. A ('harlcstonjdispatch reports that another indictment has been found against him on the testimony of twenty four ex-members of the Legislature, who declare that they were bribed to vote for him as Senator. The great difficulty in C roving charges of bribery has always pen that those wlto gave the bribes ami those who took them were equally un willing to hear evidence against others that would also disgrace themselves. Put here is a cloud of witnesses already secured, and unless there is some slip in the progress of the case, it cannot he long lefore the Republican majority in the Senate will be further reduced by one, and the Republican minority—let us hope it is—tn the South Carolina jails be increased by the same num ber.
