It worries the Democrats exceedingly
to think they have been unable to find
a flaw in Garfield's letter — Bellefonte
Republican.
Not at all—democrats didn't need to
pick the flaws, such republican papers
as the New York Times, Post, Graph,
and others picked the flaws in Garfield's
letter,

Mrs. Greenzwith, of Williamsport, is
rejoicing in the recovery jof her lost
voice, and considers it doe to prayers of
fered by herself and friends. She lost
her voice about the middle of July, 1873,
in consequence of a severe cold, and
since that time has only been able, with
much painful effort, to speak in whisper.
Forsome time past, according to the
story, she united with a neighbor in
making her malady a subject of special
prayer. Her friend felt assured that on
the morning of July 4 her infirmity
would be removed, and when the day
arrived Mrs, Greenzwith surprised her
friends by talking in her nataral tone of
voice. Doth ladies are accordingly con-
vinced that her recovery was the resnlt
of a supernatural interposition.

Tanner's fast has brought out other fast-
ing stories, some as large as a summer
snake story. The Philadelphia Tele-
graph says there was some years ago in
the Blockley Almshouse a man named
Thomas Wiggins, who persisted in de-
claring that he was Jesus Christ, and
started out to imitate the Saviour by
fasting forty days and nights. He sues
ceeded in doing without food for thirty-
five days, when his system gave out and
the process of restoration was begun;
hut nature had been overtaxed and he
lived but forty-eight hours. The first
seven days of his fast he existed on a
small bottle of porter, witha few swal-
lows of water. The porter he [finally
gave up, taking only water. When he
died he was very much emaciated. A
Post~mortem examination showed that
all Lis vital organs were very much con-
tracted—his heart weighed six ounces,
his stomach was one-third the normal
size and bloodless, in the right lung
there was a tuberculous cavity consider-
ably larger than a’goose-cgg; there were
also tubercles scattered through the left
lung. From the start he began losing
flesh, aud despite [the exertions of the
attendants, declined to partake of food,
saying he was Christ, Higgins wns a
wative of Boone County, Ky, and, aside
from his peculiar hallucination, was in-
telligent and rational, and was a general
favorite with the attendants.

The Philadelphia Times says there
are signs of a growing unpleasantness be-
tween the President and the Secretary
of the Treasury concerning the conduct
of the campaign, Mr. Hayes is anxious
to accord General Garfield all possible
support, and doesn’t care particularly to
allow any civil service reform notions to
stand in the way of success, while Bec-
retary Sherman is not at all enthusiastic,
Since the Secretary has been having his
summer vacation on a revenue cutter
the President has ordered sent forward
some commissions that Mr, Sherman di-
rected should be held till he returned,
and there is plenty of trouble promised.
Some difficulty now threatens about the
New York Custom House, where they
have got a Collector whom the President
is understood to be willing to remove in
consideration of Conkling’s support for
Garfield, but he meets with Sherman's
objection, Perhaps if this administra~
tion wants to be unanimous in behalf
of Garfield Secretary Sherman will have
to be removed.

NO MILITARY NONSENSE,
The Sun says Gen. Hancock is pre
a fit person to be President, not because
lis.
of his great qualities as a soldier, di
played as they were jon many historic
played when, having absolute power
thrust dpon him in a district comprising
liberately decided in favor of a civil in-
stead of a military government. Ie
knows, as we all koow, that the nomi-
nee of the Cincinnati Convention is not
Hancock the Captain, but Hancock the
Citizen ; not the hero of Gettysburg, but
the self-contained patriot who declared
that “the right of trial by jary, the ba-
beas corpus, the liberty of the press, the
persons, and the rights of property must
be preserved,”
especially the jealousy toward kitchen
Cabinets made up of irresponsible mili-
tary men, which pervades the American
people. Ha knows that upon that rock
knows that no successor of Grant can
pursue a similar course without splitting
his, We aresure that President Han-
cock will have no Babeocks and Porters
managing his Administration. and no
Military Rings plundering the Tregsury.
President Hancock will not keep about
him a Cabinet of civilian knaves and
nobodies, as President Grant did, leav-
ing the real power of direction in a little
coterie of army cronies. He will bring
to his aid the foremost statesmen of the
nation, the greatest experience, the
ripest learning, and the purest charac-
ters, to be drawn from the leaders of the
great party which shall have elected
him, Mere dabsters in politics from
West Point or Annapolis, whose whole
professional training uniite them for any
successful management of the great con-
cerns of government, will take the seat
that justly belongs] to them ; and they
will keep it and no other to the end of
Hancock's administration,
. o_o.
The Philadelphia Press, radical , smells
the coming defeat, and thinks there will
be a heavy contest, Yes, and one that
will take the republican party under,
The Press says :
“Everything points to a contest of un-
usual degperation in Philadelphia and
the largest poll by many thousands ever
given in the city, The Republicans
have three-fourths of the election boards
and the machinery necessary to resolve
all doubts in their favor; but they will
now be met with {he most confident,
defiant and desperate Democratic army
they have encouptered since 1880, It
will be Greek locking horns with Greek
and Republican supremacy in the city
will be contested at cvery step by the
Democratic faith that looks for a Hane
cock triumph in the State.”
nt i fF
Hancock is overrun with distinguished
visitors every day from all parts of the
country,
Hardly any body goes to see Garfield,
The Rervorrer would advise some of the
Centre county Credit Mobilier clubs to
send a deputation to Ohio to git np with
Garfield to break his lonesomeness.

called into prominence by the fact that
beyond a doubt, and exposes the weak
ness and absurdity of thearguments em.
ployed by his adherents in the vain
1
$5,000 fee matter. The case in which
this opinion of Justice Swayne was ren-
dered was that of Chittenden against
McClellan and others, It was tried in
Cook county, Ill, in May, 1875, and was
decided on appeal in October, 1879 in the
United States Supreme Court. It may
be said that Justice Swayne is a thor.
ough Republican and an Ohio man. The
Supreme Court opinion was delivered in
the case of Burke against Child, the
case of Chiltenden ggainst McClellan
being submitted on the arguments and
briefs filed in the former suif. Justice
Swayne says
“The ggreement with General Garfield
a member of Congress, to pay him $5,000
as a contingent fee for procuring a con-
tract which was itself made to depend
upon a future appropriation by Congress
~—which appropriation could only come
from a committee of which he was
Chairman—was a sale of official influ
ence, which no veil can cover, against
the plainest principles of public policy.
No counsellor-at~law while holding
high office has a right to put himself in
tense of making a legal argument exert
dependent upon his future action, Cers
tainly the courts of justice will never
lend themselves to enforce contracts ob-
tained by such influence,”

form or another to palliate General Gar-
