The boss bank failure is telegraphed
from Europe, it sets all other, any
other half doacn bank failures, in this
or any other country in the ahade. 1 ie
Cite of Glasgow bank closed its door* on
•j inst., with $50,000,000 liabilities— only
50 millions! The bank waa established
in ISSd, and had fifty to sixty branches.
This is the heaviest bank failure in
Scotland since 1557, when this concern
also suspended. The other Scotch bank
were asked for assistance, but after ex
amining the books, at a meeting refuse*.!
to do more than redeem tlio note circu
lation of the city of Glasgow bank, which
is stated at three and a quarter million
dollars.
The failure has caused great excite
ment throughout Scotland and in the
Ixindon stock exchange, where there
was a heavy fall in Scotch rauroad se
curities in consequence of a pressure of
Scotch holders to sell. The failure ofj
the bank is generally attributed to its
resources being locked up in bills, shares
and debentures of various kinds that
were not readily convertible.
Would like to know what ths repubs
nominated a ticket for—they can only
elect a commissioner. The greenbackers
will beat the repubs, and the democrats
will beat both pubs and "back"**.
The democrats of Worth county. Mo.,
have nominated E.S. Garver, a former
typo in this office, for Assembly. We
congratulate Klias—he will make a good
representative.
Caldwell, greenback nominee for sen
ator was cashier of a broken bank.of the
bankrupt firm of Wm. M. Lloyd <k Co.
It takes a great deal of impudence to
ask a laboring man to vote for such a
fellow. The greenbackers were very
unfortunate in some of their selections
for nominees.
Colorado, Georgia. Indiana. lowa, Ne
braska, Ohio and West Virginia hold
elections during the present month of
October. Of these States Georgia, In
diana, Ohio and West Virginia are
democratic; lowa and Nebraska are re
publican. and Colorado is claimed by
the republicans.
It is surprising, when you read the re
publican papers, to learn what good,
and worthy fellows all the democratic
candidates for congress were, excepting
Gov. Curtin, now that he has the nomi
nation. Of course they were, and Curtin
as well as the rest, as he is the brightest.
But had any other one out of the lot
been nominated, these same sheets
would have made out Curtin and the
balance good and worthy, and the lucky
one, be it Reed, Baker, Test, or Meek,
as a very bad chap. We all know that
a large fraction of the rads, the corrupt
Cameron ring, are mad because Curtin
is the democratic nominee, out the
democracy are in no better humor than
when the other fellows are very mad.
Wm. Bigler, one of the noblest of
Pennsylvania's governors who is not
seeking office or profit from politics,said
this recently: I have many democratic
friends in Centre county, tell them for
* me, that the noblest thing they can do
is to elect Gov. Curtin for congress.
Gen.Shields, the hero of two wars,
crippled in each, wants the democrats
to elect Gov. Curtin to congress.
IOWA ASKS FOR CURTIS.
Not alone does every leading demo
crat in Pennsylvania rejoice over Cur
tin's nomination, but the democracy in
far off lowa join in the cry with rejoic
ing that so able a man as Gov. Curtin is
' to be sent to the national legislature.
We print in another columnfnn article
from the Burlington (Iowa) Gazette, the
organ of the democracy of that state,
and ask every democrat to read it.
CURTIS AT WORK.
Gov. Curtin is speaking every day In
favor of Dill and the ticket. Last week
he spoke in Allentown, Beading and
other towns in the east, night and day.
This week he is speaking in the oil
regions. Gov. Curtin labored in this
manner for the democratic party for the
last six years. What democrat will not
feel grateful to him for it and cheerfully
vote for Andy for Congress. We feel
proud that we have so able an accession
to the democratic ranks.
THE STATUS OF THE SOUTH ERS
CLAIMS.
[From the Atlanta Constitution.]
"Will the loyal men of America." asks
the Burlington Hawkeye, "vote to pay
the rebel claims against the Govern
ment?" For the information of the
Hawkeye we will state that the rebels
have no claims against the Government.
For the sake both of truth and conven
ience, the conundrum should have been
couched in the following respectful
language: Will either the loyal ineu of
the North or the patriotic men of the
South vote to pay bogus loyal claims.
Yocum's "meetens" are all capable of
being held on the rim of his white bat
with the crown for his rostrum.
Lord Beaconsfield lias the gout. W ell
better he than some other poor fellow.
He can afford it.
Greenbackers and democrats in loaa
have joined hands on a state ticket.
Something may drop there.
Dill never was a corporation man—he i
tomes from the common walks. Hoyt, ;
besides being the pet of the griudiug ,
corporations,is also the lap dog of the ,
Camerons.
ASPREW a. CURTIS. n
Six years ago when Hon. A. G. Curtin
returned from Russia, resigned one of
the highest offices within the gift of " v
republican administration and came ;1
over to the democracy who w ere in a
minority, taking the stump for ltucka- j
lew, there was not a democrat in ('en- j
tre county or in Pennsylvania, who did t
not rejoice that so eminent and able a ,
inan as Gov. Curtin. disgusted with the t
corruption of his party, had come over, t
and joined the democracy for reform. >
On his arrival at his home in belle- ;
fonto. in the fall of 1572, the democracy ,
of Centra and Clinton counties turned
out and gave the great war governor one ,
of the most magnificent receptions evot i
tendered to any public man in this state, i
The town was literally packed with en
thusiastic democrats who had come to
do Gov. Curtin honor; the torch light
parade on that evening was one of the
| memorable events of Bellefonte. 1 rom
the Watchman office hung a mammoth ,
banner, inscribed npon it, "M eUvtne to
Gov. Curtin," in three feet letters. 1 \e
ry democrat rejoiced in his heart t..at
Andrew li. Curtin waa with our party
and that the democracy wore to have
his valuable services. The ltt|
shared by the democracy of the entire
Keystone state and of the whole I nice.
Gov.Bigler resumed his pace upon the
democratic ticket us delegate at largo to
the Constitutional Convention, that
(iov. Clirtin might have his p ace, and
to that position 1,0 W,IS * llVt,k d by i>-
ceiving every democratic vote in the
state.
Six years ktTI pa id rfMUHfit l"
portant events in the history of Gov.
Curtiu, and that gentleman ha- remain
ed with our party, hsttleing came-'
ly every year for the success of
its principles and nominees, and bo.dly
eudorsiug its platform of principles.
Certainly Andrew G. Curtin, with all his
ability and the prestige of lus great
name was an accession to our rank
worth b*trin t \ and for these he was wel
comed by the democratic hosts.
The democratic party is not in a posi
tion to slam its doors in the face of men
who ask to join us from the republican
rauks. If we would win we mustgetour
gains from the opposition. And it would
be the craxyiest folly to close onr door's
on the best material in the oppi -ition
ranks.
Then why is gov . Curtin not worthy
the confidence and vote of ettiy demo
crat " What better evidences ot a man's
sincerity can be had than that which
we find as ictat*.--! in the above brii f
facts? Gov. Curtin tn cfiCgress will be
a representative of whom every cdigen
of this congressional district can feel
proud, and the district will do it-elf
great Locor by sending him there.
Gov. Curtiu is a democrat without
reservation. Every speech ho has made
lately and since 1)172 contains the
declaration that the democratic platform
has his warmest approval.
Lai every democrat, then arouse to his
1 duty—goto work for the whole ticket,
and see that his neighbor is right. A
democratic defeat this fali ia.u: - defeat
• for many years—the next governor will
hold four years. It will have a damag
i ing effect npoc the next presidential
election which is . cprtain for the
democracy, unless they now fritter away
• the chances. There are no more return
' ing-boards to cheat ns. We need only
■ once more march up determinedly to the
• work, and it is done.
Democrats of Centre. *do your duty.
IX) not endanger the success of the party
1 by petty bickerings. 3len are nothing
principles and the triumph of them is
all.
1 Democrats, go to work—our whole
ticket from Dill and Curtin down to
Coroner is worthy of your most earnest
support.

Telegraphic despatches from India
leave little room for hope that the
. Afghan difficulty will be arranged
peaceably. The government is hastcn
' ing on military preparations. Troops are
- being collected from all sides and sent
5 to various points on the northwest fron
. tier of India. The Times' correspond
ent at Calcutta telegraphs as follows
"The government will make I-ahore
• their headquarters for the winter and
t will not return to Calcutta. The For
s eign Office has received orders from the
camp at Lahore. This looks as if the
f Viceroy entertained no hopes of peace.
' The government are anxious to avoid
, acting harshly. The Ameer has still the
t choice of submission open to him. In
any event i doubt whether an attempt
to invade Afghanistan on a large scale
i will be made until spring- Accurate in
> formation regarding the Ameer's
j strength is wanting, but it is known
that he hac a well equipped standing
army, after the European model, besides
irregular levels. The most difficult ques
f tion to be encountered is the possible
t hostile attitude of the border tribes. The
I faintest mistake in tact or error of judg
ment might excite a blaze of warfare
- along the whole frontier of SOU niiics. It
r is estimated that these tribes can easily
> turn out 100,0o fighting men."
THE IOWA DEMOCRACY FOR CUR
TIS.
t
From the Burlington, lowa Gazette.
A political friccd. writing from Belle
fonte, Pa., says : "We are having a hard
contest in this district, but thai) certain
" ly nominate and elect Ex-Governor An
• drew Gregg Curtin to congress. He is a
j native of this county (Centre) and we
have carried it for him. He a ill prove
an invalnableauxiliary to the democratic
9 phalanx in the House, while his talents
. and exjieruince will place him in the
front rank as a debater and a tutes
, man."
We fully endorse all that our corrcs
• pondent says of Ex-Governor Curtin.
tie is a fine type of the true-hearted
sons of the noble old Keystone state.
Wnen tbe Union w as imperilled, he put
forth all his energies of mind and body
1 to save it. As governor of Pennsylvania
' he administered the affairs of that great
I commonwealth during our civil and
fratricidal war in such a manner as to
.' gain for him high ejyic honors and the
warm approval of his government and
• the people. The mission to ituseja was
conferred upon him as an acknowledge-1
rnent of extraordinary services, and he
also won the soubriquet of "The War
Governor."
I With the forms of the Union, Gover
i nor Curtin seeks to restore its heart find
spirit. He therefore rudened his high
office in Russia to return home in ] 872,
I and engage, as he did, heart ami soul,
j in the great work of "bridging over the
bloody chasm" between the north and
the south. He thinks that "peace hath
her victories as well as war;' that now
is the time to build up the prosperity of
our country; and to accomplish this
great end, there should be <j complete
restoration of brotherly feeling
out our America. The Governor is there
fore on disciple of the "gospel of hate, '
and wholly devoid of all sectional
and fanatical feelings.
He is, however, toe sworn enemy !<>
tiie gigantic abuses and corruptions with
which the republican party bristle* uii
over. He will wage war to the knife,
and knife to the hilt, against all "Credit
j Mobiliers," "salary grabs,'J whi.-ky rings
and against the and
Camerons, father and son. All with
villainous measures and thieving men
will feel the weight of Jiisstoels, Hence,
the nation is interested ii i Governor
Curtin's election.
The democracy of the west, inoteovto ,
owe liiui a large debt of gratitude for Ids
bold and eloquent speeches made in IS7G
in belialfof reform and of our candidates
Especially were Governor Curtin's great
powers felt in Indiana—that battle-field i
upon wliich the gubernatorial and pres
idential elections were fought and won. i
The latter to be afterwards lost by a
fraud —a crime the greatest ever com- •
mitted against elective government, and ]
which it is the duty of all honest men to
rebuke and punish. (Mrtin hill prove a (
riant in that work.
The Harper family, known in l'nn
valloy, is one of the oldest in it. It was '
and is large, Influential and ever found |
active in support of democracy. lour of
the Harpers have left tins valley and (
gone to Uellefbnte, where they have for
ten r more years engaged in the mors ,
cantile business and their standing |
there i- No. 1. These have been among ,
the most active workers in the demo- |
emtio ranks, all their lives. None of i
this hard working Harper family has 1
ever before asked for an olHcfl although ■
anv of thetn is competent to fill an) 1
otfieo in this eotinly . Now we have, for '
tiro first time, one upon the tieket, n
nephew of the one- referred to above,
who is a competent, worthy, self-made
man, ami lie has been fairly noiri- ,
mated for I'rothonotary, after afairean- t
vass, and over other equally ns good 4
men. Now why should he not have |
every denuvratio vote It is a recogni
tion duo the I Inrpor family alone, ray- j i
ing nothing of the fitnes- and excellent t
character of J. ( . Harper, who is now <
upon the tieket. Let no democrat be I'
guilty of ingratitude. Because he i
voung is no reas n at all, and beeau-e
he is admitted worthy and competent is i
evorv reason why every democrat
-iiould vote I r J. ('. Harper for l'ro- (
ihonotarv. His due the old democratic (
stock as well as the oion.
('. S. M'Coruriek, esq., announce# hiur
ilf as an independent candidate for .
Judge in opposition u> C. A. Mayer. i
Mr. MVoriuiek announced himself in
the ItEtvr.ms, and in all the democratic i
papers of this judicial district, previous
to the primary elections, as a candidate
subject to the decision of the democratic
nominating convention, lie was fairly
and even badly defeated, and now he
back upon his sacred pledge, viola
tes it, and runs indejwudent 1 la such a
man the proper person for a Judgeship—
should he not be a man of honor, integ
rity and whoso word is us good as his
bond Suppose M'Cormick would have
been charged with j'Jch intent w hen he
made his announcement, he wuul.l have
deemed it an in-ult, and yet, to this has
he come. Well, he'll not come to the
Judgeship. The people have fixed upon
I the right gentleman, C. A. Mayer, and
Mr. MVormick'a own course is the very
best proof of it.
The Green backer* in the Lycoming
district were try ing to nominate llerdlc
for senator. A broken up monopolist
for the laKvr party.
The greenbackers of this district, I
nominated Caldwell for senator—a
, cashier of a broken L-.i1.. And that for
the labor party.
1 aboring men don't be humbugged by
, the greenback leaders, they are not sin
cere.
' Bellefonte (>*• t i.i. fir;-' that has

nent democratic candidate for congress.
'. Yocuui, has been nominated for con
gress by the greenbackers, and we offer

What democrat, in the last Is years,

The democratic party and its candi
dates have nothing to defend. The re
- publican party bus been iu power in
1 the state and nation without intcrrup
- tion for eighteen years. The control of
• one bouse of the legislature or of con
-1 gress by the democratic party gave the
8 latter merely a negative power which
s could avail but little iu the enactment
c of laws for the relief of tbe people,
s Thereforce the republican party is re
-3 sponsible for the legislation of the last
• eighteen years. If corruptions have
been fostered to the injury of individ
uals, if capital has bhen protected to the
disadvantage of labor, if the tariff has
I been tinkered and .finance botched, if
■ the public revenues hare been squun*
t dered and the treasuries of the people
' plundered, the party in power, not the

that are on trial. Nor can this party

1 No decrease in yellow fever—the pesti
lence seems to be marching on,
New Orleans, October 6.—The fever
* hangs on tho skirts ol the city, the lower
portion showing a steady increase. While
1 tho river front seems-to bo almost freo of
cases, jn Ihe rear of the city it holds on, in
certnin localities with a persistency wi.icti
is really remarkable. One block—that
bounded by Felicity, St. Andrew, Liberty
and Howard streets, it bat never left since
it first appeared.
The fever is spreading daily in Algiers
scarcely a family in that place has been
exempt fro;.) li.o disease The industrial
resources of that part of tbi* city lies jo
its dry docks, oil works and railroad
shops, all of which lire now closed. The
closing of tho docks, etc., has thrown
thousands of mechanics and laborers out
of employment in this once busy little
place, and many of the late workmen are
in a slate of absolute desljt^tiofy.
Bay St. Louis, October s.—Thirteen
new cases and Ibreo deaths.

The yellow fever still retains its hold up

her.
The project of the socialists are based
on tho dogmas thnt man is born free and
good, when lie is. ii, fad, born helpless,
and good or bad, as he work* out his des
tiny ; that the responsibility for vice and
crime l on society, when, In truth, it Is in
the individual: that nature meets nion at
lha outset with gratuitous bounty, which
some appropriate u> the ex. lu.ioii of oth
, <-r, when, In fact, nature holds back ev
ery thing, and surrenders only to force
ilul labor, that man is boril endowed
with "natural rights," when, in truth,
nothing ran he affirmed universally of the
-late ot man by nature save that he it
horn to struggle for his own preservation,
with nothing but the family to help him,
and nothing Put liberty, or the security of
using his own energies for hi* own welfare,
as a lair claim upon hi* fellow-melt; that
work is pleasant, or, under some circum
stances, might be so, when, in truth, work
. u irksome; that ill en universally mav be
made, by some conventional agreement or
' sentimental impulse, to work for other* to
enjoy the product, or to save in order to'
give away ; that they may be led univer-'
,*lly la lay aside talents, health, and oth■ I
er advantages; that we can increase con-;
-uiiiptinii and lessen production, yet have
more ; that all hnvo ait equal right to the
product Of solus ; that talents are tho re
sult ol chance, which intelligence ought to|
correct, when, in truth, talelils are the re
wurd, from generation to geuaratiun, of
industry, temperance, and prudence, thai
the patsiuu* need no control, and that self
denial is a vice. This is the socialistic
creed, aad from it it follows that a tuan
has a "natural right to whatever he
need* ; that his wishes are tho measure of
his claims of his fellow iutn,- that, if lie
IS in distress, somebody is bound to gel
hiui out ;• that somebody ought to decide
what w. rk every one should do, regard
less of aptitude ; to distribute the product*
rquai!y, regardless of merit, and to de
termine consumption, regardless of taste
or preference. At this "souio one" must
be a pure de-pot, or, in fact, a god. all so
cialistic schemes annihilate liberty. .Most
of tliem are atheistic, and reject any other
god than the master of society.
NOMINATION OF CURTIN.
[Philadelphia Times, 27 ]
Andrew G. Gurlin was yesterday nomi
nated for Congress by the Democrat* of
the Twentieth district, computed of the
counties of t'entre, t'leurllcld, Clinton,
Union, Miffim and Elk The district it
I largely democratic, and under any ordina

The nomination < f ex Governor Curtin j
tor Congress by the Democrats of tht

'• the liberal element which refuses longer
n to act with the moribund and corrupt re

' nomination will be ratified at the polls by
an immense majority. The Democratic
preponderance in the district is large and

! New Haven, Conn,, Oct., s.—Mrs. Ja*j

1 death this'forcr.oon, Whiloshc was mik
|j ing a fire In a cooking Hove the flames
burst through an opening in the stove and
ignited her dress. She was paralyzed by
hir peril, and beforo she had recovered
presence of mind all her clothes were
- ablaze. Shrieking, she ran to tho barn
and brjjan to roll in tho hay, and issuing
thence she jumpod down into a deep well
and was drowned. Her little daughter
was a horrified spectator of the scene, and
after she saw mother leap down tho well

back then lakes a quantity of oats that
hero beon treated with strychnine, and
-catters them through the tteliis and in
i the woods. In a single night hundreds of
rabbits have thus been destroyed. An or
dinary trap is used in summer, great num
bers being set every night, and a man I*
employed to watch thoin, and to reset ono
whenever a rabbit is caught. The ani
mala' skins are qll removed and packed
into bales for transport to England,
where they sell for two penco or three
pence per pound. Experiments, it is said,
have shown that the flesh of rabbits de
stroyed by slrychuino is not injured by
the poison, and it i* freely eaten in Aus
