AdbeTvy failure of an iron firm occur
reil at Pittsburg last week. The firm is
that of Kimbcrly, Oarno# A Co., one ot
the largest iron firms of western Pcnu
avlvania, with works located at New t a.—
ti., Greenville. Sharon and other pointt
in the Shenandoah valley. lheimme
di.rtc cause of the failure inability
to procure discounts, one hundred tlion
saud dollars' worth of their paper hav
ing gone to protest on Saturday, l ia
bilities and assets cannot be ascertained
until after the creditors meet in a few
days.
CAnieronism has mleil a little to<
long, and promisee of good times no\ i
were verified by their party, bet then
be a change.
The Grow indians. along the yellow
stone river, in Montana, are becoming
uneasy on account of the intlux of c>

they say will drive aw ay the game. 11 <

whites.
Randall ran sleep easy now a* Sena
tor Wallace denies that he intends to
intefere in bis re-nomination for con
gress. Randall no doubt wishes be had
net been to Pittsburg tlie other wee*,
lie went there to smash Wallace but be
got smashed instead. Randall make*
a good speaker of the house, and he
should be satisfied with that. A senator
is a bigger man thau an old i-ongress
ntan.
We read in scripture of Jcolisli vir
gins, we now have an item about two
foolish brothers-in-law :
Two brothers-in-law near Fow*t De
pot, Ya., killed each other in a knife
duel, in a quarrel over the height of
their corn.
Another foolish chap he who the
other day expressed himself in favor of
starring out the Reporter.
Hoyt is not the man for the farmer
and working class. He is an aristocrat.
Dill is a common every-day-sort of a
man who has always mingled with the
yeomanry and knows tbeir wants and
gives them his aid and sympathy. The
Wilkesbarre Record, printed in Hoyt's
home savs of him:
Hoyt is a full blooded aristocrat. He
has never been, nor is he to-day, ir.
sympathy with the masses who have
neither fame nor fortune to commend
them. He has always associated with
men of wealth, and, as a lawyer, be has
for years been retained by the richest
corporations. He has been identified,
professionally and politically, with the
money monarchs of the day, whose
motto is rule or ruin.
The telegraph the other day announced
the stoppage of the Fall River Mills, in
Massachusetts, which will create great
distress no doubt as many hands receive
employ in them. The despatch say?
that by the stoppage of the Troy, Staf
ford, Flint, Chase, Robeson, Weetamor,
the two Tecnmseh and the two Warn
panoag mills, and the Border, City,
Sagamore and Union, there are nearly
12,000 out of3o 000 looms remaining idle.
It is stated that the other mills will shut
down next week. Some are running on
contract and cannot atop at present.
Many here think the mills ought to
have stopped long ago, and that if the
movement should extend now through
the whole of New Kngland as trade
would be started in the fall, its impetus
would keep business moving. By the
stoppage of theee. mills some 4,000
operatives are thrown out of employ
ment.
From the writ we have another story
of distress. A special despatch from
Belleville, 111., states that the condition
of thestriking miners is deplorable, 1,500
beiDg on the verge of starvation, and
nothing in prospect to obtain sustenance
fur themselves and families. Not a mine
in the country around Raibs station,
Belleville and Dutch Hollow has been
worked for over a month. The coal
operators, recently met in East St Bonis
and decided to pay the miners two and
a half cents per bushel, their demand,
and next morning, Thursday, about five
hundred miners went to work in the
pits, bat on learning that the operators
did not intend to pay them the stipula
ed two and a half cents they withdrew
from the mines in a body, and have
since refused to work unless the proprie
tors of the coal mines accede tottieir de
mauds.
In Dutch Hollow and at Kaibs station
the miners are in a worse condition than
at any other places. There hundreds of
men, women and children daily walk
the streets begging for bread. In some
instances they have been turned out in
the wet, damp weather, women,children
and old men alike, the doors of the mis
erable huts being shut in their faces by
the strong hands of the owners. A
committee were in the East St. Ixiuis
this morning soliciting subscriptions of
money and food for the reliefofthe suf
fering miners.
Representative ilackey made a report
a few days ago, from the Committee 011
Pensions, recommending the passage of
a bill amending the "Act to allow a pen
sion of f3'i per month to soldiers who
have lost both an arm and a leg," by in*
aerting after the words "totally and per
manently disabled in both," the words :
"Or otherwise disabled equivalent to the
loss of one hand and one foot or to the
permanent disability oi both," the said
act (with this amendment) to remain
the same in other respects as heretofore
enacted. The committee believe the
amendment just and proper.
The congressional investigation into
the presidential fraud promises to result
very badly for John Sherman, at least.
Byarepqrt of another column of evi
dence taken the other day, Mr. Sher
man is put into a very disreputable (Mo
tion as an aider and abetter and briber
of fraud. Let the investigation be thor
ough and the rascals exposed is the de
mand of the people, and if Hayes has a
spark of self-reepect let him step out.
The question before Plymouth now is:
Shall Elizabeth be expelled because she
says Henry Ward is guilty.
There is no issue now before the peo
ple but this one: Shall there be trooest
government and a cleaning out of cor-|
ruption and fraud wherever it be found.
On which side will you stand ?

as the title of llavrs itself. If there was
no wrong committed, then tiny have

Judge iliac* l ucn spoke in high terms
of the democratic coudnee for judge of
the supreme court, u was evulrnt
that he felt great personal rssv-.ct—per
haps it should be railed warm admira
tion—for Judge Stcrrett. He gave Mr.
Fertig an enthusiastic indorsement, and
there seemed to be some old recollection
of Mr. Africa that quite stirred him. On
the whole l- 2S not merely satisfied,
out more than iaf/fcfieii, nuic<M thor*
oughlv pleased with ti' 'k cfthe con

He did not speak very fr<dy oftti* in
vestigation going on at Washington in
to the frauds of 1876. It was easy to see
that he caa under some restraint in this
part of his chat, arising, perhaps, out of
a past or present professional connection
with the subject.
"I have no stock in the pti3jH?ct of
turning out Hayes by quo warranto. i,o
doubt Haves got the presidency by
means of a'fraud- But he got it and has
it. It was couueded to hitn by the house

"Can he be impeadvad for the fraud
practiced to elect him? Certajnlv not.
But if there was a fraud to which be
consented or for which he bargained be
forehand and after he got into power he
rewarded the guilt of the rascals by giv
ing them offices. he is impeachable for
that. So also is any subordinate officer
who did the same thing. r lhat a fraud
stupendous, shocking and outrageous
was perpetrated in Louisiana and Flori
da is beyond denial. It has been al
ready proved many times,in a thousand
ways and by clouds of witnesses. The
pending investigation ej.n only bring
out some particulars showing iy whom
it was instigated and paid for. t iicpe.
and believe that Mr. Hayes had nothing]
to do with it. But certain 'visiting
statemen may have gone down there
and committed the crime, using the
state officers .as mere instruments who
did their corrupt work on a contract. If
one of these visiting uun became secre
tary of the treasury afterwards and car
ried out the dlthy bargain by rewarding
the criminals, then there is no lay in
justice either that can save hiui from
impeachment. An example is needed.,
I think the house ought to have pro
ceeded distinctly and expressly on this
ground and moved to this objective point
giving Mr. Sherman either a clean vin
diiation or a just condemnation after a
hearing. As it i the investigation seems
to be aimless. Tfc* mill is going, to In
sure, but there is noiAting in the hopper
that can be legally pomnicj.'

Chicago, May 27.—'Hue unprecedent
ed movement of grain in this uuwfcul is
attracting considerable attention, and
indicates a great revival of business.
Last week the aggregate shipment* were
3,105,223 bushels. Besides this, there
were received 48,172 barrels of flour, and
shipped 49,626 barrels. Computing the
flour as wheat, this shows an aggregate
movement for the week of 7,285,981
buahela of grain—figures never before
reached in this or any other city on tho
continent. To-day' movement was lar
frer than any hitherto reached 2 r >24 inr
oads of grain came in, of wklfiH 1.900
were corn, and 43,4(X) bushels of gra>,u
came in by the canal The receipts tIT
bushels would therefore be for tosday,
including flour, 817,733; shipments,
002,755; total movement, 1,420,488 bush
els.
The discovery has been made that a
small species of marine animal is devot
ing itself, with considerable success, to
boring into and destroying ocwau cables.
Perhaps they are reporters to the tui>-
marine News in pursuit of terrestrial
items. Whales, likewise, seem to have
a fancy occasionally to interrupt the cur
rent of information from shore to shore,
but their object in doing so appears to
be a physical rather than an intellectual
one. Not long ago one of them which
undertook to interfere with the cable in
the Persian Gulf met the .tita reward of
bis intermeddling. Tim cabb. haying
ceased to work, examination revaaipd
the fact that a whale had become en
tangled in and broken it. The animal
was covered with parasites, and in at
tempting to rid itself of them by rubbing
its body against the cable, the cable was
broken, and op# of the ends then coiled
around the wiiaia stjcb away that it
could not free itself, goti suffo
cated.

4 CLONE S'TERRIBLE WORK.
Half a Town Levoltt.] a..d Many
Persons Killed.
St, Louis, June !■—A special from
Richmond, Mo., to the Times, says that a
, terrific cyclone had passed over that place
about four o'clock this evening, leveling
to the ground over half of the buildings
,ij the town. Over 10U houses were totally
destroyed, an* U,o less en property will
reach $230,000. Whole blocks were com
pletely swept away and the debris was
scattered f>r tnilcs. The storm came from
the southwest, passed to the northwest,
and was preceded by a heavy fall of rain.
Trees were uprooted and carried through
the air like feathers, as were the frag
ments of houses, and in fact everything
tho storm struck.
The§J*,aw h"Uo, a l r ge brick hotel,
1 was demolished, an* its im.,ates buried in
the ruins. So far as known the following
| named persons were killed: Mrs. Thorn as
j Casey, Miss Rose, Mr. Nading, Mi.-s
Crouch, Joseph Campbell, Mr. Hamilton,
Miss Uolman, Mrs. Alvis Faught, Thorn
a* Ruhannan and Mary Joy. Three were
'mortally wounded and about thirty seri
ously.
Ilorsos and slo.a o," $!1 hinds in tin-
I track of tho storm wero swept off the
! earth.
j A train load of citizens from Lexington
: have arrived to render aid. and physicians
from all surrounding towns have been

to guard the town-

1. Fidelity. Thty fell tknt God'* law

Their principle w is. that in mutters .if re ;

this principle, they put their conduct, in
the face of danger and death, and found
out that fidelity will be (awarded. •

motto Communis error faeit jut - What

Vndthey had courage eit nigh to dare to
do right. Kvery young man's motto
should bo Do right, if every other man
does wrong. Let the populace cry inyw-|
farify as much as they please; Christ
savt : tio thou Mid dolikewite.
3. Integrity. These men valued a

fully h'gh enough, so much so that
never lacked good men to fill them well.
Now. Mr Editor, 1 noticed an article in
your eioellont paper sou. lima head-.
ed. "The People Have the Power," which!
I think speak* volumes. Are not the vot
ers in a republican form of government
the sovereigns ?—do they not wield lh<-
power of lliis "government? Are wo serfs,
or are we vassals, that we should submitt*
the mandate* ol certain political ring-mas- j
ters? No, I think not. Let us. as Amer
ican*. remember that w_ *s voter* are re .
sponsible ; on this one act hinges the des.j
liny and perpetuity of our government 1
I f we do not correct wrongs at the ballot.
boi, the blighting curse wiil recoil on our (
j own heads. The remedy is at hand; let!
the people select men of honor and integ
rity, who will come out, pledge themselves:
to fill all the county offices at the same
salaries and offieo fees that worn paid be-j
fore the war. I feel pretty confident that:
all tax payers who are outside of political
rings will vote forthein ; not only the day
laborer and the mechanic, but the farmer,
the nyrchant, the manufacturer, the bank- i
er and the public pres, feel the prwaure 1
severely as any—for *s are all oppressed.'
All share alike under this fearful burden
t'an we not trace to these extra paid and
unjust salaries, to a great extent, tho de
prcssio; t.f all the business in our country?
The farmer is taxed so heavy sisal no is
compelled to cut down his expenses in or- '
der to meet these demands ; and he can (
not hire labor to improve his farm. The I
manufacturer is compelled to shut down,
simply because of this burden oftaxation ;
so wo may trace it up to all the business ol
the country. Consequently thousands of
laboring mon aro out of employ ; for in
stance. let us look at the extra expenses in
our own state and county—will the voters
of old Centre endure it any longer ? wo
trust not.
In conclusion, will refer the readers of
your columns to tho palmy days of ancient
Greece and Rome, that reared monuments
of liberty towering to tho clouds, which
have long since crumbled to dust. Lot us
learn from past events, which all spring
from political corruption and extrava
gance. N (in SPRUCE TOW*.
