11111.1 l ISSIIIS'III " • GENTRA BOPORTER. . ;S'JHTS. KDITOB V liKTBK HALL, PA., Nov. 211878 The republicans make a big crow over the solid north, and a terrible scold over a "solid south" and want the soldiers sent down. Queer! Tho result of the recent elections allows that wherover the opposition to the republican party was united, there tho republicans were routed. 11 democrats hereabouts learn * l*° n from this and not again be drawn oft in to a side arrangement? Mason, tbw late greenback candidate Tor governor, on Friday after the elec tion, made an assignment or t,000 in favor of his creditors. No wonder lie went in for unlimited greenbacks-be needed them. In Elizabeth, N. Y..a man who is said to have been dead for aix months, re ceivod a majority of votes for Justice of the Peace. M'e should like to know whether this is intended for the nncleu# of a new party —dead men revtainH would not do near as much harm as many living men elected to office- Wc mentioned the fact last week that Gov. Curtin received the full democratic vote in some counties in the district— Union keefting in line for him. M e see that in little MitHin he even got 5 vote# more than Dill. It was nothing else that defeated Oor tin but treacherv among a few demo crats. aided by the combined republi can and greenback support and i ame ron's money. In Cieartield county Dill's vote was 3,207. and Gov. Curtin'a*3,oM-* differ ence only of 173. At a Conference of greenbackers. held here yesterday, it was resolved to strengthen "the party." In view of the late elections the more sensible thing to do would be to hire an undertaker and remove the remains, says the New York Herald. Hon. C. T. Alexander goes to the aen r.te with a good send-off, 11ST majority in his own county and 1627 majority in the district. We expect to have a use ful member in Mr. Alexander. Tiie country would, on the whole, we believe, like to see the Democrats once more in power, for the present election shows that it does not lore the Republi cans.—New Y'ork Herald. Awd it is true. Take twcctbirds ofthe greenback vote which was drawn from the democrats and add to the regular democratic vote, and it leaves the rads in a woeful minority. As democratic greenbackers won't be green enough to be fooled thus again, the repnbs may as well get ready for a Waterloo next time. The Delaware Democracy elected to Congress a man who bad Iseen convict ed of treason during the war, and who was fined and imprisoned for his crime. —Lewistown Gazette, rad. And yoa rxds have done much worse than that—Grant and Hayes have been hugging rebel guerilla Moseby aver since the close of the war. A great many democrats who went in to the greenback arrangement now ad mit that they were fooled and cheated, and tbat it was only a republican scheme to draw votes from Dill on-Mason to help Hoyt—and it did sleet Hoyt The same game was played in Ohio, where it enabled tbe rads to carry the state by a paltry 3too majority, when the demo crats could have easily carried it by 25,000, had none of them gone estray on the greenback movement. Dill and Mason together have 60,000 majority oTer Hoyt. Of this 60,000 ma jority there are democrats enough to have elected Dill by 25,000 majority. The result plainly shows tbat Pennsyl vanta is not republican by 60,000, and as democrats have learned s wholesome lesson, tbey now see that united Penn sylvania can easily be carried against the rads. The republicans knew there was danger of being swamped in Pennsylvania hence tbey engineered the greenbackers to draw democrats away from Dill; many republicans went into it, but only as a ruse and to deceive democrats, for tbe greater part of them voted the straight radical ticket at the polls. We hear of republicans all through Centre county, who, before tbe election professed to be greenbackers, yet they now admit tbey voted for Hoyt, leaving the democrats blindly to vote for Mason. This was the case all over our state, and hence tbe reason of Hoyt's election as a n inority governor. We trust that when the Cameron managers get np another side-sbow, no democrat will be silly enough to trust them and go into it. We are glad that democratic green backers now hate enough of the thing and they intend to stand by the good old organisation hereafter. Tbe Paris Exhibition was closed, on Sunday afternoon. 10. It was a grand affair, from all accounts, yet in no re spects did it exceed onr own Centen nial. Tbe total receipts at Paris since tbe opening were 12,530,749. This is thirteen hundred thousand dollars leas than the receipts of the Centennial Ex hibition, but it ia four hundred thous and dollars more than the total receipts ofthe Exposition of 1867, which waa one of the moat successful of tbe seven great World's Fairs. The exact figures of tbe receipts of these seven Exhibitions are as follows 1851, London. 12,120,000 1855, Paris. 640,000 1862, London. 2042,650 1857, Paris. 2,103075 1873, Vienna. 1,032,390 1876' Philadelphia. 3,813,750 1878, Paris. 2,530,749 It will be seen from the above table that, while the Centennial Exhibition etili beads the list by many tbouaands of dollars, the Paris Exhibition which has just closed takes the second place. AS OVTRA GE. [Steubenville Gazette.] The defeat of Andrew G. Cartin, the regular Democratic nominee for Con gress in a strong Democratic district was an outrage, and should receive the in dignant reprobation of every honest Democrat throughout the .country. How long will it be until a democratic Presi dent is elected if every former Republic can who runs for office on the /lemocrat io ticket is to be treated as a political enemy by the mossbacks who ni"w run the machine? Is that the way tb Re 4* publicanß got into power? ♦ This is the way to fix them: Judge Meyer, of the Common Pleas Court, at Canton, Ohio, sentenced George Fessler, the defaulting Treasurer ■ of Starke county, to twelve years im- j {irisonment in the penitentiary at hard abor and to pay a fine of (60,000 and J costs. "SOT in SOVTIt Slavery is abolished, yet the repnbli-1 cans can't let the South alone. The re- j cent election' in the south having gone I democratic, the rad journals Rre getting abusive, an 1 yell about the "solid tooth." Wh n Michigan, and Vermont, and Wiacon u. and Philadelphia go solid radical, bat s all right in the eyes of these po onl pharisees, but they commence to ave the bloody shirt as soon as tho si th does not go to their liking and elei s democrats, the sots th em states havi as much right to vote democratic as the New England and western states >ave to voto republican all the time. The result o ho November election# in the south dooa not suit the republi cans, and they are now clamoring to have the army sent down there sgain. so that southerners may take the hint and go radical or else face the bayonet and the tvrannv of shoulder straps. We will see whether the American people will submit to any more bayonet elections. IMPORTANT LIQUOR HRCISIOS. The liability, of persons selling intox icating drinks, in Ohio as well as in this state, for damages resulting from the! *,*B to whotu it is sold is we,, known. But New York gvies* step farther and bv a statute makes the lessor, o# owner of the property, responsible as well a# the tenant. An exchange says. New York adopted a statute of this kind a few years ago, bot its constitution.'. I '!* was doubted, and it Las not been gener ally enforced. A case under it, however was recently taken up to tlie Court of Appeals, and the law has been sustain ed even to the extent of holding the owner of a building responsible for damages, as well a# the tenant. It was this point especially on which the appeal was taken. The rase was one in a bich a young man, whilst in a state of intoxi cation, killed a horse belonging to his father, by fast driving. Ttie fttlher claimed damages for the value of the horse, and sued both the saloon keeper who sold the liquor to his son and the owner of the building in which the li quor waa waLi. He recovered, in the County Circuit Court, a verdict for 1200, the ftill valne of the liovse. The de fendants appealed to the District Court, where the judgment was affirmed. The owner of the building then carried the case up to the Court of Appeals, where it was argued before a full beach. Ibe main question involved was the consti tutionality of the law, especially as to the liability of the owner of a building, who had n? connection with the said of liquor, except to rent the building to be used for that purpose. The decision of the lower Courts was affirmed and Jbe law fully sustained. This decision will involve landlords who lease on ldings for saloon#, in a very wide and complicated responsibili ty, and will hrve the effect to make it more difficult r retail liquor dealers to lease premises -r their business—an ef fect, no doubt, ntended by the framers of the law. It will also call attention to the subject of t e New York law and others of a simi ar character and start auew a discussie i of the propriety and efficiency of this >lan of restricting the liquor traffic, esj ecially that part of it which makes tb owner of a building accountable for t' e acts of his tenants. The Watchman last week, willfully misrepresents Dill's county, in order to show its spite against Curtin. The Watchman says, "Union county is one of the counties that mercilessly slaught ered Curtin at the election." The Watchman knows this to be a falsehood, for on the same page it says Union gave Curtin 1455 votes. Now the democratic state ticket had in Union Fertig 1448, Africa 1446, Row 1449. which shows that Curtin ran ahtad of the state ticket, with the exception of Dill who, of course, re ceived more than his party vote in his own county. Union county democrats were true to Curtin, and were not at all infectedwith Meek'a treason. Mis ery loves company and the Watchman is raking to find some more bad eggs like itself. In Mifflin county Curtin also ran : ahead of the state ticket. Curtin was more than double teamed —he bad to face the greenbackers, re publicans, Cameron's money and Week's treachery, which makes it a wonder that he came out as he did. The Watchman is known to have been secretly opposed to Dill and makes this false fling at him along with its spite at Curtin. They didn't get tbat nog—no: Kramy Brushy, alleged to have swallowed Mrs. Scbeshangere's five hundred dollar diamond ring in August last, has just pleaded guilty to grand larceny, and has been sentenced to fourteen months imprisonment. The ring was not re covered.—N. Y. Herald. When Emma gets over her 14 months, we would advise her to come to Penn sylvania and try her hand at swallowing the Cameron ring. The republican party has at lost fallen into a minority in this state. The total vote for Hoyt ia 319,667 ; the vote for all other candidates for governor is 382,471; showing a majority against the republi cans of 62.904. The anti-republican vote of the state is divided thus: democratic, 297,060; greenback-labor, 81,756; tern-. Iterance, 3,653. At least two-thirds of the greenback-labor vote came from the democratic party and more than two thirds of it will "in all probability here after be cast for tbe democratic ticket. Wonderful are toe beauties of our leg islative apporlioi ments. Philadelphia with 70.000 Repub' nin voters elects 31 members of the j gislature, and the Democrats with 56, '*> elect seven. That is 2,300 Republican \otea elect a member of the House, while it takes 8,000 Demo cratic vote* to secur: a like result And yet the Republicans talk of disfranchise ment Month. We have it in its worst form in Pennsylvania. The Republicans had no objection to the solid South in the Forty-first Con gress. In that body they had twenty two Southern Senators aod the Demo crats only two; and they had fifty-two out of the sixty-three Southern Repre sentatives admitted. Perhaps if they bad sent decent men to Congress and behaved themselves otherwise in a de cent and politic manner the solid South would not have melted and crystallized so suddenly into a new form. Cook county, Illinois, can go up head. A despatch from Chicago says—Sheriff elect John Hoffman, of this countr, has nearly 4,000 application* for positions in bis office, and as there are only 48 places to give away, ho has ample materiel from which to choose. The railroad companies have again got into a fight and are cutting down the farea between the east and the west. 1 You can now go from Cincinnati to Sew York or Philadelphia for just one dollar (|1), *4.11 Ohio will be apt to take a ride at that /'ate.

The Pent or rats of lVrks county make short work with prominent members of the party who tight against the ticket. At a meeting of the Democratic Asso ciation of Heading on Saturday night i last, a resolution was offered condemn ing and expelling from the Democratic ; party the following members Peter l>. Wanner, late candidate for Congress ; J. George Saltier, who ran fbr Mayor at the lnt municipal election; Alderman Isaac K. Fisher. Mike McCnllough and Alexander Panibly, Independent candi dates for the legilatnre; George Kcissinger, who failed to make a nomi nation lor the Legislature at the late city convention, and John K. ltouden, another prominent Democratic |oliti eian. After the resolution was read a motion to adopt waa carried by a thun dering aye. Hereafter these men will not be rceognued nor admitted into any county convrtttion. Mr. Albright, the president of the Club, before cloaing the meeting sai l "Ttiia is the way the IVmoerata of Perks deal with trait ors." ♦ • .4 TIE OF STATUS IS' THE SKX T HO VSR. If the Presidential election goes to the House of Representatives in IML the Consiiuiuon declares "a majority or all the biates ahall be necaaary to a choice." The result of the Congrrosioo al elections is that the Democrats have 1 secured an undoubted majority in the • delegations of nineteen Mates. There is some doubt about the hrtsdauirmim biff i we judge that the Republican is elected. Conceding them the State, the Kepubli r catiH have u majority in the delegation# < of eiglitepn States, sud California, by , special act of Congto*#, will ele, i her member# next year. In the followiug ' nineteen States the Democrats have a ' majority: • Alabama, Mimourl. r Arkansas, North Carolina, j I Via wars Ohio, Florida, firsgon, " Georgia, South 4 arolina, • Indiana, Tennessee, r Kentucky, Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, . Maryland, . West Virginia, Mississippi, ' The Republicans have secured these " eighteen, if Nevada is included: ' Colorado, Minnesota, r lows, Nebraska, • Kansas, Rhode Island, ' Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, 9 Michigan, New Hampshire, - Connecticut, New Jersey, Illinois, New York, Nevada, Pennsylvania, !f California should elect three of her four members lVmocratic next Septem her.then the Democrats will have ten ty Mates and a majority. If California, however, goes Republican, the Mates will he tied, that la,each party will have niueteeu States, and there can he no choice by the House. In that event, tbfi Constitution provides the Vice President atiaii bcrw President; but as the probabilities are almost wortain that if there is no elf"*'© l * ©f President bv the people, neither will there be au election of Vice President, the lattet will be chosen by the beuate from the two highest numbers on the electoral !'t. The Vice President so elected will become President on the failure of the House to elect. If the Democratic party carries a ma jority of the Electoral votes (ora plurali ty in ou*> there is no choice' it will not again lose the Presidency. If no party tins a majority of the Electoral volo the Senate will elect the President, and the senate will be Democratic after the 4th of March next, a l*eniooratic majority being already elected. The election in California, however, next year vs ill be of great interest, be cause it wiil determine the election of President by the House should the state go Democratic. If it goes Republican it will send the election to the Senate. There will be a struggle for tbe State to cover accidents. In 1876 the Republi cans elected three members, one of them who lost his seat in a contest, by a ma jority of one vote, and the iHtmocrau one member, making the delegation in the present HouaeuamJ twoand two. The State is close and doubtful. It is among the possibilities or proba bilities, that the candidate voted for by the Democrats for Vice President in l&sl, may become President after the 4th of March, IV>l. .4 GOVT HERS VIEW. Cits. JOE JOHNSTON' OS IIOHKKT MOKCV A*ij SOUTH KEN CLAIMS. Gen. Joe Johnston was interviewed a day or two ago by the Washington Poet. After expressing himself in favor of honest money he thns spoke of the atti tude of the Mwiiiurrn majority. "Without any advice at afi upon the question, 1 will venture to say that the | altitude of the gentlemen from the Southern States will be such as to disap point the irreconcilables of the opposi tion. who hsve, I see. already begun an etlort to array a solid North against a solid South. We wiii probably have little to'say in reply to Radicals of this stamp. Our acts will speak more em phatically for us. Sectionalism was kill ed last Tuesday, and long before 1880 the 'solid South' and the 'solid North' wiil be forgotten terms. The people of the Soo& have known for thirteen years that the war was at en end, but these long-rang© Radicals and iUfy-da>* war riors cannot, seetningiv be brought to a realization of th'a fact. The revival of the charge that it is OOr settled policy to saddle the war debt of the Confederacy upon the country, is abeura—-contempti bly so—and it passes my comprehension ho'w any inUlligent reader can receive such reck leas inventions with patience. The South is now as close a part of tne Union as is New England ; \ irgioia has tbe same interest in the general pros perity of the county as Massachusetts and her representatives, and tbe repre sentatives of the South wiil be found to be active in support of all measures tending to the general good of all sec tion* of the country as the gentlemen from Maine or Vermont." "General, what U your opinion," he was asked, "of the future of the Green back party in Virginia or the South T" "They have no future, sir. They were buried beyond hope of resurrection on the sth, and deservedly so. Herein Vir ginia they had no principle. The corner stone of their hopes was laid in dishon esty, and their doom wau fore-ordained. To their scheme for a piebald currency they added here the policy of repudia tion of the Htate debt, and though Con gressmen can have no share in the set tlement of that question, still the elec tion of their candidates would have been hailed as a signal victorv for the repu diationists. But, to the credit of \ ir ginia, they have failed signally, and the world will now understand that we wrilj meet our honest obligations." A ctiriou* will is that of Lingeman, a German Socialist, which waa filed in St. Ixiuis last week. His estate is worth over (12,000 and is bequeathed to the woikingmen of Europe and America who belong to the Social Democratic so cieties,t as follows; To Switzerland, France, Italy and Spain, one-sixth ; to Germany, three-sixtha; to Austria, Hun gary, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Poland and Russia, one-sixth; to the United States, one-sixth. The will con tains a list of prominent Socialists in various portions of the world, and closes with the declaration "that the true friend of mankind is in earnest with the parole 'One for all, and all for onethat his only religion is to do good; that all man kind is his family and the whole earth bia fatherland. Farewell, ye men of labor; and yu women, ere long to be en dowed with equal right*; —may you ail live happily, and sometime; think of your brother." The Socialist legatees the world over will be surprised to learn that one or two direct heirs at law have already turned up to contest the will on its ground that the old gentleman's head wj. r&tljer soft. # m- 0 The President denies that tua ever ads mitted that the Administration's Soutfi rn policy had been a failure.

ROBBER'S WORK-ONE BROTHER COMPKLLF.D TO SHOOT AN OTHER. Houston, Tex.. November 6 —A start, ling robbery and bloody tragedy occurred last night in the Higg's neighborhood, lit roc miles north of Bryan, the oldast set tled portion of Texas. Abeut midnight a gang of masked men, mounted and well armed, wentto the house of Thomas Higgs. broke in and tied bim to the bedpost, band and foot. The vidians then robbed the house of $(160. They then took Higgs and made him walk in front of the house of bis brother, Sam Higgs, a quarter of a mile distant. They forced bim to knock at the door, and ordored him to make no reply. His brother Sam, not receiving any answer, seized a six-sboolar and fired, mortally wounding Tom Higgs. The rob ' hers tbsn opened lire, completely riddling the bouse with bullets. The occupants, however rnirafpiously escaped. The rob bers mounted and rod# gway southward. They are supposed to bo headed by one "Good Night." The MinnequaSprings Hotel was entire ly destroyed by fire on tbe morning of the 12. tfotkiog was saved. The inmates barely escaped with their lives. Loss es timated at 976,000; insurance |6QSK).
