. den's testimony on the cipher busi
. i- given in another column. It will
be seen that no? a blemish attaches to
him. and this is strengthened by the
testimony ef Mayor Cooper, Marble and
IVlton. It leaves the matter where all
candid minds adjudge it—that Tilden
wo# fairly elected and that Hayes was
n :. and that electors were bought for
Hayes.
iu the Army Bill, as it passed the
IM-use on Saturday, the effective strength
of the armv is limited to twenty-five
thousand msn. The proposition to
transfer the Indians to the military *as
mgatived, and the employment of
U } ifM at the polls in elections prohibit
ed. The main features of the Burnside
-i rganiuation scheme have been adopt
ed. General Butler's amendment al
lowing the railroad companies to use
their wires for military and general
public business was added to the bill.
From thirty to thirty five thouaand
men ..re reported to be on a strike at
Liverpool, and some of them have no
great respect for the jieace of the city.
M Fa and mob law were in the order of
tbe day on Friday, and thousands of
sr.;':; burly ruffians as the average Brit-
Nh L irer. inspired with a conviction
ti : tMy are oppressed and wronged,
_nd freed by their momentary paasion
from the littie moral restraint they are
coram mly under, constitute an insura
n tion of blind and wild force well cal
culated to trouble the authorities
wherever it may be show# itaelf. From
the operation of such a burst of ruffian
ly ferocity Liverpool will escape very
we!' if it has no worse experiences than
whs? are ao far recorded.
< ne of the Pittsburg membera haa in
troduced a bill, which, if it should pass
would saddle about three fourths of the
r ot damages upon the state treasury—
or some three million dollars, leaving
tr a million to be paid by Pittsbargh.
in! r the present law Pittsburgh would
have to pay all. Had the citizens of the
Iron City done theft duty at the out
break of the riota there would have been
no damage. But thev stood by and
looked on ; more, they even encouraged
'lie rioters until the devil of destruction
could not be held in check, and state
troopi had to be called to prevent the
entire destruction of that city. .Vow why
shonid Centre or any other county in
tli-s ale, help pay damages for which
they are ;n no wise accountable? It i
not right, and such & bill should never
become a law—let an example be made
Ilia' will teach other communities that
to encourage lawlessness and the des
truction of private property in their
midst, is done at their own expense.
The cipher dispatch investigation
has thus far shown nothing against Mr.
Tilden, oa the other hand it is vindica
ting him, and has put some republicans
in a fix. Mr. I'elton in his testimony
the other day, said, he could not remem
ber the names of bis correspondents; the
telegram sent by Weed were sent by his
i Pelton's.) directions; witness shown the
dispatch, said he could not remember
anything about the dispatches ; there is
no question that the Tribune dispatches
got near to the point, but they are inac
curate. "Give me more latitude and 1
will testify fully." Marble telegraphed
in reply to the dispatch asking 1200,000
that it was too high ; Tilden was exceed
ingly severe when he heard of my ac
tion ; I left for Baltimore without his
knowledge or consent; be had no idea
of what was going on; had no conversa
tion with him on the matter until after
my return from Baltimore, when I
showed the governor the whole corre
spondence ;he was still more emphatic
in denouncing the whole proceeding. To
all questions relative to the use and ex
planation of the ciphers witness' reply
was that he could not remember.
Mr. Reed cross-examined Mr. Pelton
at considerable length, but nothing of
importance was elicited. M itness ac
cused (lliscock of insulting him. His
cock asked witness if he wanted the
country to believe that without consult
ing any leading democrat or hie uncle
that he made these contracts involving
a large sum of money, whereas witness
had not a dollar? Witnessed answered,
you are offensive again.
After recess witness said be had not
made up his mind when he promised
the money to whom he should go for it
but probably to the active men of the
democracy and possibly to the demo
cratic committee. He denied emphati
cally and repeatedly that he expected
the money from Mr. Tilden. The com
mittee then adjourned until to-morrow
I but Mr. Fflton wan required no! to con-]
' i>lcr himself discharged.
THE cruris cos TEST.
We have not referred to this matter
of late,in the Repoutik, and e frequent
inquiries have been made with us as to
how the contest is -oing, we will just
say here, end it can he taken as reliable,
that the contest is going on all right,
and that enough of republican frauds
have already been proven to scat t'urtin
and the work is not yet one third
* through with, Enough fraud has al
* ready been proven in t'eutre county
* alone to clearly entitle Gov. Ourtiu to
f the seat in congress. In I'learlieU 1 roun

• of fraudulent votes for Yocuuiat.i wh.vh
1 will be thrown out, than in our own
1 countv. lu the remaining four counUes
' of the diatrict there will also he shown
i* the same kind of work to defeat <•#*
Curt in ; ami when the wh >e thing is
through with and summed up, it w
1 prove that Curt in has a large ma oritj
of the legal votes cast.

"war governor ' will get the seat, wit
t come true. Gov. t'urtiu will be seated
without snv S to 7 arrangements or au\
resort to precedent# and :f he wished t>

The following little hiatory of the
f Bank of Kngland will be of interest,
i That institution will be lssyeraold the
> 27th of the coming July, having receiv*
> ed its charter of incorporation at that
• date, and having been projected by
f William Patterson, a Scotchman. Con
• stituted as a joint stock company, with
( a capital of £1,200,000, the w hole sum
• was lent at interest to the government
- of Wiiliam and Mary, then much em
* barrnssed. At the outset it was a #rv.r,t
1 of the state, and has ever since continu
ed such more or less. The charter,
granted at first for 11 vears, has been
' from tirae to time renewed, the last re
' newal, snbject to modification or revo
' cation, having been in 1844. For a
while the business was done in one
' room ; now the bank occupies, as every
' body knows, a large building in Thread
' needle street, and employs some 6 >
men. Nothing less than a £3 note is
• ever issued, and no note is iaeued a sec
1 ond time. The average amount of notes
' in circulation is £23,000,000.

The letters from the President, or
those in his confidence, to Collector
Arthur, which were read by Senator
' Conkling in the course of his speech on
the New Y'ork Custom House appoint-
I menls. caused a good deal of merriment
, in the Senate, but the merriment was
ill-timed. Is it a matter for laughter
' that an administration should so dis
i grace aid stultify itself? There was a
1 letter begging ua appointment for a sou
I of the Judge whose voice as a member
of the Electoral Commission placed
1 Hayes in tbe White House in defiance
i of law and equity. There was .mother
i seeking a place for a man whose only
named qualification was the authorship
of a fulsome campaign biography of
Rutherford B. Hayes. And there were
more of the same kind. They did not
i make Mr. Conkling's cause belter, but
. tbey made tbe administration's worse,
and ought to bring tbe tinge of shame to
the cheek of every man connected with
it. In the teeth of si eh things how
able and honest public journals like the
New York Evening Post and the Spring
field Republican can claim that Mr.
Hayes is engaged in a battle for the re
form of tbe civil service is far beyond
comprehension. If the administration
has not sunk to the depths of infamy to
which Mr. Conkliag said it would be
consigned, when the truth about this
busineas were known, it is not because
it does not deserve that fate. Perhaps,
however, Mr. Conkling has gone to pre
pare the way for it.
The increase of the hoard of gold in
the treasury since the first of January
exceeds two hundred thousand dollars.
Some concern is manifested as to what
will be done with all the gold now ac
cumulated in the vaults of the treasury,
especially on the part of the anti-re
sumptionists who predicted so confi
dently a little while ago that the specie
would soon be drained. But there need
be ao alarm on that score. What is not
required to meet the interest on the
public debt will be paid out for current
expenditures and it will return to the
treasury in sufficient quantities to
meet all the requirements of resump
tion.

A I'.RESTED FOR MURDER. #
Six Men in Ini! Charpcd with Kill
ing an OM Man to Obtain In
surance Money.
Keauing, Pa , Feb. 4, I ST'-*.—This after
|h(K'n tbe cvuitmunity of Lebanon, Pa .
was startled when the announcetr.ent was
made that Cherlee Truth, Israel Brandt.
Frank Sleekier, Henry Weiss. Jes.ah
llummei and Ge rge Zechsian were mbi
milled to jail on '.he charge of having mur
dered Joseph Kabar, an aged man, fifteen
nx.l'-e from Lebanon, last December. The
body of the usan was found lying ia a
•teal! creek, near his residence, end at first'
It was supposed that he had dropped'from
a pleok while croivag fr >:n an attack of
vertigo, and bad b< i a iir wr.ed. Nothing
wreng was suspected at first, but wkea it
was learned that strange parties Le.d peli
cies of tniurance oa the old man's lite to
i the amount of sls 000. the manner of the
!death was m -re closely investigated The
! deceased had no rclnttras, ei d when th
■body was picked up, it was alleged that
no effort* were made to rcsuscitete him
The coroner wa* even compelled to h> Id
the inquest in e barn, as the body was no',
allowed to be brought inte arsy aeighbor
ing heuse.
Driven by Conscience.
The information charging the accused
with the murder was sworn to by Joseph '
F. Fetcrs, of AVv.'t Hanover towr.sAip, be
fore Squire Pick. Pelera testified that ha
saw several of the accused strike the old
man over the head wilh a blunt instru
ment and then throw the body into tho
creek to convey the impression that ha
had fallen in and drowned. Peters swears
that the reason he did not make the infur
mation earlier was because bis father in
law, Charles Truth, was one of ike parties
eeneeraed in the murder. ILs conscieece.
however, troubled him, and at last be
gave way and told the terrible story. The
warrant *s< pieced in charge effour offi
ears, who visited the iceae ot the uiurdur
and made the arrests Peters was a sal
dior in the regular array and bad just re
turned home. The scene of the murder is
in a lonely portion o( tbe county near the;
Blue Mountains. All of the prisoners, ex !
cepting Truth end Zechtnaa, have policies;
on the old man's life. It is believed that'
there was a conspiracy among all the ac-:
cusud to get the old man out of the way to,
secure the nmnoy.
ORIGIN OF THE PLAGUE.
London, February 3.—The origin of]
the plague in Russia is thus given : A
Cossack, returning from the war to Wet
tinskn, brought his lady love a shawl,
which she wore two days, and sickened
with all the symptom; ofthe plague, and
died. Tho following four days other!
members of her family died. The disease!
spread rapidly, the lecal authorities no*'
paying any attention to it till half Ih sir
habitants died, and the remainder wets
unable to bury the victims.
Then, when the epidemic hid assumed
serious dimensions, eeergetie means were
taken for preventing its spreading, and
strict quarantines were establirhed ; first*
ly, in towns end villages, shutting off the
streets where the plague reigns from the
rest of the place, end secondly, by sur
rounding the villages with troops so that 1
nobodv is allowed to pass in or out. The '
panic in Russia is almost incredible. Eve- '
ry class and station in life have petition- !
ed for the entire cessation ef all inter
reurse, even of postal communication he- !
tween the rest of Russia and the Volga
Letters sent from Astrakhan anJ Zaritzin 1
sre aot rectived by the persons to whom '
they are addressed. Some people even
refuse to lake paper money, tearing the '
germ of infection might he communicated r
ihrough it.
Il is almost impossible to describe the 1
terror which has taken possession of the "
venple. The Russian Sanitary Commie- 1
lion has proposed to shut off tho Volga '
iea from ell intercourse with Western
[tussia, and permit communication only
inder quarantine.

A SWELL MOHAMMEDAN WED
DING.
Tho Marriago ol tlie Fifth Boit of the
Khedive of Egypt.
[Alexandria Correspondence London
Time* ]
Jlahmeud Hamdi Bey, the fifth eon of
the Khedive, was merried lest week to a
daughter of Edhami Pasha, a son of Ab
bas Pasha, son of Mahomet All. and Vice
roy of Egypt from 1848 to lb'>4. Prince
Tewflk, the heir apparent to the throne,
is married to a sister of the bride, and
Prince Ibrahim, new al Woowich, is be
trothed to another sister. Certainly the
viceregal family nre obedient to tho be
hest* of their religion, which declare mar
riage a positive duly. "Art thou mar
ried!?" asked the prophet of ono of bis fol
lowers. "No," replied the man. "And
art tbou sound and healthy?"
smd the other. "Then," declared the
prophet, "tbeu art on# of the brothers ol
the devil." But the devil has not many
brothers in a Mohammedan country, as
every uian of any position has his barum.
Four wives aro the limit, and the facility
of divorce Is so great that rich men de not
at all shrink from the dangers of this
quadruple alliance. Alee, tbe companion
of the prophet, is said to have married aad
divorced two hundred wire#; and a cer
tain old dyer of Bagdad has come Juwn in
history as a man who had been married
nine hundred times.
