SALE OF THE OFFTYIIIII7II€I RAIL-
110 AD.
We have received from David Wills,
Esq., the following telegram in regard
to the sale of the Gettysburg Railroad,
which took place at the Merchants' Ex
change, Philadelphia, yesterday:
PariAnyt;rmit, Oct. 13.
D. A. Braman, 'Esq.:
C. 8. Maltby bought the Gettysburg
Railroad to-day, for $lBl,OOO, being the
highest bidder. D. Pique. :
We hate no inforniation as to the
parties Mr. Maltby repreatints. He re-•
sides in New Haven, Connecticut, and
is the person who hold the Bonds, origi-
rally hypothecated to Hopkins, Bit-
Unger; Swope and others. The Han
over Branch Company was one of the
bidders.
T* DISTRICT.
The vote in this Congressional Dis
trict is very close, and the official figures
can only definitely 'determine whether
Cessna or Meyers is elected. Cessna
gains in Adams and Frarddin, and is, re
ported to have carried Bedford, while
he loses heavily in Somerset. Our last
reports elect Cessna by about 23.
A Harrisburg despatch of this morn
in g claims Meyer's election by 29.
DENTE( OF GEE. LEE.
Gen. Robert E. Lee, leader of the
Rebel armies during the War, died at
Lexington, Vs., on Tuesday last, aged
85 years. Since the war he has been
acting as President of Washington Col
lege, at Lexington.
AFTER THE BATTLE.
With the election on Tuesday, ends
the political campaign of 1870, so far as
concerns Pennsylvania. Both parties
will rest on their arms until summoned
to a renewal of the struggle in Octeber,
1871. For some weeks we have devoted
a large portion of our. tolumps to politi
cal matters, to the exclusion of our us
ual variety. In future, while unflinch
ingly supporting the principles of the
Republican party, we shall expect to
cater for the varied tastes of our large
number of readers in thexarious depart
ments of General News, Local Items,
and Miscellaneous Reading. It will be
our aim to make the STAR AND SEN
TINEL an acceptable and valued family
paper. Our friends in the townships
can largely aid us, by sending in prompt
ly items of local interest in their re
spective localities,, Marriages, Deaths,
Sales, Accidents, Improvements, &c.,
all of which are read with interest and
enhance the value of a local *paper.—
Please bear this in mind,
With new type, and z large accession
to our Jobbing 'department, we have
better facilities than ever for all kinds
of Job Work, and will be prepared to
meet all favors in this line promptly and
on reasonable terms.
THE COVZITT.
The Democrats have carried the coun
ty by a reduced majority, electing their
entire ticket. Barrmade heavy inroads,
but not enough to -overcome the Demo
cratic majority. The people of the
county seem content to stand the `pre
sent administration Of County finances,
debt, taxes and all, and to their verdict
we cheerfully submit.: -
For Congress Mr. Meyers beats Cess
na in the county. *brad IMO. This, al
though less than the Democratic ma
jority in 1888 and 1880,.is slightly in ex
cess of our calculation----the Republicans
having conceded the county ,to Meyers
by fr . = 250 to 800. Prejudice against
the negro, unqualtionably lost us some
votes, a few week,kneed Republicans
having succumbed to .the CopPerhead
howling, over the "nigger," It was
the last chance of the enemy, and they
made the most of it—not as much as
they expected, but enough to keep their
own disaffected in line, and temporarily
to win over a few Republicans who in
time will 'be thoroughly ashamed of
their folly.
The newlyenfranchised colored voters
did their whole ditty, casting a solid vote
for the Republican ticket. They seem
ed fully to appreciate the responsibility
of their new position, and met it man
fully; quietly, but firmly asserting their
rights, and exhibiting a good deal of
activity in . arranging to poll a full vote.
In the borough of Gettysburg, they wens
among the first to swear at the polls,
and voted quietly, and without objection
by the Democratic canvassers; . The
Democracy having conducted the cam
paign on an anti-negro platform, did not
dare publicly to canvasafor colored votes,
but undertook privately - to manipulate
such Of them as were thought to - be Sus
ceptible of nmnipnlation, As such
came—to the polls, they Were quietly
taken possession of by the colored can-
vassers and matters straightened out.
The election in the borough passed off
quietly, with Ism contesting of votes
than usual, although both parties made
active efforts to pollen available votes.
A number of Republican votes were air
sent, and a few - Democrats--the aggre
gate poll being lighter than was expect
ed.
The day opened pleasantly, but ablnit
noon rain set in, which continued dur
ing the day and night, doubtless pre
venting the poll of many votes in the
rural districts.
Wrraori desiring to discriminate as
between Osgood work done by Repub
licans on fait TamillaY, we think it not
amiss to that am o ng the Democratic
districts, where our friends are in
a minority, there are two or three
worthy of special mention. Oxford
township reduced the Democratic major
ity handsomely. Straben, ens of the pest
fought districts in the county, not Only
held the_opposition to their meager maj
ority d i f last year, but gave Ban for Di
rector 17 majority, and elected Fletcher
Van 05 / 3 41 . 11 4 Republican, Township As
sessor. Our friends in Cumberland made
a glsirions debt, sweeping away the De
mocratic majority f 29 and piling from
6 toje Republican ority on top of it,
A few at the officers, includ
ing hoop Becticun, were haat by local
dillinnif4oll:

The result of Tuesday's election in
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, lowa and
Nebrasia, is a grand Republican tri
un4p. Two years ado the Republicans
Stites,
wep ailihese an unusual-
ly large majorily Of the tongresameg.
The Democracy counted surely on car
rying enough districts on Tuesday to
break down the Republican ascendency
in Congress, while few: if any, Repub
licans hoped to hold their own in these
*tea. The result is a complete demo=
lilion of Democratic expectations, and
a reassertion of the popular devotion to
the principles and - policy of the Repub
lican put , . The principles so often de
fended and asserted on the field and at
the polls have been rp-atlirmed, deliber
ately, but emphatically, by the people,
not in the heat of enti usiasm
, or under
the pressure of anger, but as the con
viction of judgment. It is a triumph
thus of far more weight than the victory
of an exciting and hotly-contested cam
paign. It is rather in the nature of a
judicial verdict.
PENNSYLVANIA
The Republicans sweep Philadelphia
by about 5,000 majority, electing their
Judges, Sheriff, Register, Clerk of the
Courts, itc. Myers and Kelley are elect
ed to Congress by increased majorities.
In the 2d district, the contest was be
tween Creely and O'Neil, both claiming
tote the regular Republican nominee:
Creely is elected by about 400 majority.
In the sth 'district, Reading beats
Harmer by a few hundred. Two years
ago he beat Taylor, but the latter con=
tested the election on the ground of
fradulent votes, and got the seat.
The 12th district, now represented by
Judge Woodward, is carried by Shoe
maker, being a Republican gain.
In the 21st district, Foster beats Stew
art by a small majority, being a Degio
cratic gain.
-The 20th and 24th districts are close;
but we think the Republican candidatea
are elected.

An awakened and accusing conscience
often is the bitterest of punishments. A
singular instance recently occurred in
11bussactrosetts. A watchman in the
Charlestown State Prison 'brutally threw a
small boy into the water from the' prison
wharf, where he was playing. with other
boys. The child pleitded for his life, say

watchman made not the slightest effort to
save him,..and he was drowned. For this
barbarous deed the light eentehee of five
years' ImPiisonment was inflicted neon
him. But into his - prison an avenging
monitor followed him. The heinousness
of his crime arose before , him, andremorse
was so great that his health failed, and he
became absolutely insane. Only //WO

AN OLD MISER CUTS A CHILD'S TONGUE
OUT AND HIS FINGERS OFF—THE MONSTI'S
SHOT DEAD IN HIS TRACES.—Last week's
Saginaw (Michigan) Republio says
It has been known for some time that a
dirty, wretched old man lived outside the
city, about a mile or to, in a filthy little
cabin, entirely alone, and that he was a
hermit. No one ever went near him, for
it was said that he Rasa magician.
His only oompanion was a skeleton-look
log dog. He came into the city sometimes
to beg, and would piteously implore for
money, stating that. be was starving.—
Sometimes he would' gather rags or scraps
of paper and sell them. Every one sup
posed him to be wretchedly poor. Ho had
an evil look, and mothers would remove
their children when they saw him ooming.
One day lust week, however, a child, the
son of Abraham Skinner, went. out
alone to fish in the stream, and happened
to wander on until, before he knew , it, Lid
came to the hovel of the old man. At
first he was frightened, but seeing no one
around be plucked up courage and went
nearer. Everything was silent. He went
and peeped through a crack in the side of
the hut.
He almost screamed at what he saw, for
he beheld the old man bending over a bag
of money that he was coming. ••There
were qther bags beside him containing
large quantities of money. Mr. Skinner's
son was so terrifleitthat when he attempt
ed to move he stumbled. Like lightning
the old man•rushed out and seized him.—
“Ital” he screamed, "I've caught you,
have I ? you saw me, did you ? Well—
now you'll pay for it." And before Mr.
Skinner's son could say a word the old
monster, with an awful Magh, drew out a
kWh, and (oh, horror D cut the chill's
tongue out. Then he chopped off his fin_
gars. "How, "he aaiii—"now you can gq

THE expense of building Williellusholie,
or "William's Ilei‘lit," the residence as
signed to Louis Napoleon by the King of
Prussia, was enormous. It is said that it
required the labor of two thousand men
fourteen years, and that the accounts were
burned to destroy all traces of the extrav
agance. This palatial chateau and pleas
ure-park was built by Frederick IL, Elec
tor of Hesse, out of money received c -11
him from George 111., of England„ forthe
17,000 Hessians hired by King George, as
Elector of Hanover. All the surrotind

there is a strange building of oetegmal
shape, with a series of cascades descending
from its foot; through five basins, to a

EMANCIPATION IN CUBA.---The decree
for the emancipation of staves in Cuba
provides that all children of slave mothers
hereafter born shall be free; that all chil
dren born since September, 1868, shall be
free on the payment of twenty-five dollars;
that all slaves who have served the Span
ish Government against the rebels shall be
liberated, loyal owners only to be indem
nified for their loss; that those slaves who
have reached the age of sixty, and all here
after arriving at that age, shall be free
witlioubbcompense to their owners, and
all slaves owned by the State arelree with
out qualification. Careful provision is
made for the education of the young by a
system of apprenticeship, and the State is
responsible for the welfare of the freedmen
who have served it heretofore; those who
prefer to return t.) Africa will have the op
portunity. Provision is also made for the
emancipation of the slaves of masterewho
are cruel. When the new Cuban Depu
ties take their seats in the
.Cortes a pro
ject will be presented for the gradual
emancipation of all the slaves still held in
Cuba. •

The Atlantic Monthly for October eon.
twins an article from the pen of Senator
Wilson, of Massachusetts, which•for *WV- ,

Shprtly after' the
dentr.dwtiti3f. Stanton. Senator WU
.
son ti to the public some reminiscences,
desigated to show the lofty patriotism and .
ineos6l6l4ervices rendered to the coun
try l r Mr. Stanton iu the closing days of
Buchanan's administration. Jeremiah S.
Black, who was a member of Buchanan's
rabinet•at:that time, replied in what was
a bitter, and was intended to be, a scath
lararitchrilnwhich he flatly denied die
accuracy of Senator Wilson's statements,
and really i mptigned both the character.
and services.alleged to have been render
, ed by Mr. Stanton, Senator Wilson's reply
not only thoroughly disposes of Black's
statements and assertions, but goes fur
ther, and furnishes aninside view, of the
influences and counter-influences at work
in the closing days of Buchanan's adminis
tration. - It gives a view of the deep and
damnable corruptions of the rebellious ele
ment in Washington, such as has not been
so clearly, connectedly, and convincingly
laid open to the people before.
It shows that there was an actual .con
spiracy in progress among the members of
Buchanan's Cabinet, and - even in his very
presence, to seize upon, the government
after the manner of the coup &taut of Na
polenn. It shows that a most intense
struggle was Maintained between the loyal
and disloyal element—the one struggling
to guard against treachery and the de
struction of the govennnent, and the other
struggling as eagerly to so arrange mat
ters as that its archives and material might
be securely seized by the rebellious cle
ment then in Washington. In the midst
of these secret but gigantic efforts, Stan
ton placed himself in communication with
the Republicans and loyal Democrats,
clandestinely corresponded with Seward,
visited Sumner in the small hours of the
morning, and securetrby Congress the ap
pointment of a committee empowered to
investigate the pending dangers, kept that
cominittee constantly informed of what
was transpiring—in a word, displayed the
astuteness of a Richelieu and the vigor of
a Napoleon-in defeating the machinations
of traitors. The history of one 'of his
movements, as sketched by Mr. Howard,
of Michipu, we transfer to our columns,
as being new and fresh, and as giving a
clear idea of the manner in which the se
cret plans of traitors were as secretly foil
ed. After mentioning the circumstances
under which the committee alMve referred
tO,Was raised, he says :
"I do not know that Mr. Stanton wrote
the resolutions creating the committee. I
did , not see him write them. I never heard
him say he wrote them. It would be easier,
howevir,..to Persuade me that Mr. Jeffer
son did not writo r the Declaratiwof Inde
pendeace than that Mr. Stantor did not
wiite those resolutions. If he did write
them, they are a sufficient answer all to
that Mr. 'Black has said or can say. Who
ever *eke them and requesteti the Hotise
of Representatives to adopt them would
not have occupied ally doubtful`position.
Ido net think I saw Mr. Stanton at any
time between the Ist of January and the
4th of March, 1841 ; but I think I heard .
from him more time?, than there were days
in those tw•o;nnonths. The clearest state-
ments of legal rights, defining the boland
,arleg'of treason,' the most startling facts,
iirlien the evidence of treachery could be
;found, were
One of the seerea - ties had accepted the
resignation of officers who had joined the
rebellion, and had dated back the resigna
tions, in one case two days, for the avow
ed,purpose of protecting the scoundrel
from- trial Ly naval or military law, for
leattmObe attack on the Pensacola-Navy
yard on the \ 12th day of January, 1881,
while he still held his commission. The
letter covering the resignation stated that
the resignation was written on the 13th,.
but dated back to the 11th, the day before
the attack, and he wanted the acceptance
to be dated from that day, so as to save
him:from military law, I. boasted that
they had smashed the civil courts in
Florida. The resignation was received at
the department on the 22d day of January
at 8 o'clock in the afternoon ; but the ac
ceptance was dated on the 11th, as re
quested. I state dates from memory, and;
may not be entirely accurate. We were
put upon this inquiry by information
brought to us by a bird which flew direct-
ly from some Cabinet Minister to the com
mittee room. I never suspected Mr. Black
or Mr. Touccy of this impropriety. If
suspected Mr. Stanton or Mr. Dix or Mr.
Holt, it was because they were "suspicious
characters."
"We were more than once told it would
probably be necessary to arrest a certain
member of The cabinet for treason. Once
we were told that it would probably have
to be within an hour, but to wait until we
could hear a second time. Word cane to
hold on. These messages certainly carne
froin some member of the cabinet. I al-
ways supposed something was going on
there about that time. If so, probably
Mr. Black did not know anything about
it, and most likely Mr. Stanton's great
modesty prevented his doing or saying
anything about lt. Mr. Black informs us,
too ; that Mr. Stanton was at the time a
"Democrat ;- perhaps that prevented his
doing or saying anything about these mat
ters. For • obvious reasons personal in-
terviews with cabinet ministers were
avoided during the labors of the commit
tee ; but I do know I many times sent in,
quiries, and always recoived answers with
great promptness, conveying information
of:great importance. But these commu
nitations were indirect and anonymous."
He also shows that Mr. Stanton at one
time had oonrizwed Illuehanan that
the government had a right to coerce
States, and had written for his message a
clear statement of the doctrine, but was
afterward expugged by the influence of
other members of the cabinet. The arti-
do also takes in its range the tihestion of
the appointment of Mr. Stanton as Secre
tary of War by President Lincoln, and
clearly shoes, by the ;most indnhitabl6
eviabnce, that Mr. Oameron not ' only
voluntarily resigned that position, but that
the appointment of Mr. Stanton as his sue-
censor should-he ascribed to his influence.
The singular statements of the Commer-
ciaeon - this atillieiit loam pitiable in the
light of Senater WilsZsu!s revelations.
" But the value of this article consists in
the incidenU4 evidence it \ onis of the
terra* corruption and desperation of the
DenkOseey, when they thought they. were
losing their hold on power. The prtipoes
of Andrew Johnsen have been gradrialk
belied if he did not cherish the same de-
sign as is ascribed to the traitors in
Buchanan's cabinet. Added to this, Mr.

THE. MOVET OF OTITES.
Writing to the Observer, from Jerusa
lem, "Eusebius" sayi:
"Apart from the sacred associations of
the Mount of Olives it is one of the meat in.
terresting places in the region of Jerusa-
I The view of the-city itself is the
finest to be had from any point. The
summit of the Mount of Olives is three
hundred feet above the area of the temple,
- on which it looks directly down, as upon
the whole city which lies spread like a
map before one's eyes. Every point in
the city can be distinguisied,> and every
mountain round can be seen, and, looking
eastward, we see the Valley of the Jordan.
The Dead Sea itself, although nearly twen
ty miles distant and three thousand nine
hundred and thirty-five feet below, is as
plain to the sight as Jerusalem. If the
view is so interesting now, ghat must it
have been when Jerusalem w*s in its glory
and the land of Palestine like' a garden?
"I was greatly interested, when ascend
ing the Mount of Olives at different times,
in tracing out the path that David took—
when he fled from the treachery of Absa
lom. ; 'And David went up by the ascent
of Mount Olivet, and wept as he went up,
and had his head covered, and went bare
foot; anti all the people that were with
him covered every man his head, and they
went up, weeping as they went up.' Noth
ing in tic history of the reverses which
kings have suffered could ho more touch
ing than this. The scene was constantly
recurring to my mind as I went up the
mountain from time to time. I was al
most expecting to meet Shimei as I passed
over its summit. The Mohammedans
were there with their curses if he was not."
SUMMARY OF WAR NEWS.
TUESDAY Oct. 11.—M. GaMbetta, Sec
retary of the Interior, in a proclamation to
the people of the several departments rela
tive to affairs in Paris, says the impregna
bility of Paris is no illusion. It cannot be
captured or surprised, and there is no dan
ger of the sedition or starvation which the
Prussians have been counting on.
The Prussians are pushing their works
near Jerome Park, near Meudon, and on
the Bimborian Hill,near Sevres. When
completed, the Prussian artillery will
command Auteuil, Passy, Grenelle, and
other points west and southwest of Paris.
It is said the Tours government is be
gining to prepare the public, through the
medium of the press, for a cession of
French territory to Germany.
La Laurie comants to a slight rectifica
tion of the frontier near Wissemburg.
Heavy guns have been brought to bear
upon Pfalzburg, and the bombardment
will soon be opened.
The foreign
.ambassadors at Tours are
negotiating for quarters at Bordeaux, in
view of the contemplated removal of the
government thither.
Prinoe Frederick Charles is ill with ty
phus fever. and has been obliged to leave
the army. It is said he is now at Ferrieres.
Telegrams from Berlin announce a great
Prussian success before 'Metz on Sunday,
and there Ls great excitemot, at the capi
tal in consequence. It is claimed the
French were badly repulsed and driven
within the walLs of the city again with
terrible loss oflife.
The Russian government officially de
nies the reported movements of the Bus-
Sian army towards the Turkish frontier.
31. Theirs had an interview with the
Austrian Emperor on Sunday at noon,
which is said to have been satisfactory.
ALLEGED ATTEMPTED SUICIDE Op TUE
Emreznoa.—The Presse, published at
Vienna, gives the following extraordinary
piece of correspondence from Cassel:
"The Prussian Government hasissued the
sternest prohibition against the receipts at
the telegraph office of a report of the cir
cumstances which I shall now relate to
you from authentic sources. In spite of
all attempts at concealment, yesterday
the news spread here like wildfire that
Napoleon had, on the eighteenth, made an
attempt at suicide. The details of the
affair, as communicated by the officer on
guard, are as follows: Napoleon, for two
days, litxhibited a strange elevation of
spirits, which, up to this, had not been
perceptible in him. He received during
the last few daYa several despatches and
letters from Paris, and Hastings, spoke
extremely little, and‘for the two days left
his room only once. 'This was about 5
o'clock in the evening \lle had given
orders that all despatches Which arrived
should be brought to him immediately,
wherever he was. Two, which led just
come,frnm Hastings and Brussels,\were
accordingly taken to him in the park."Be
read them, and grew visibl' pale. He
then returned to the castle, and shut him
himself up In his room. After they had
seen or heard nothing of him for two hours
his immediate attendants began to be
alarmed. About 9i o'clock they resolved,
on the pretext of having something impor
tant to communicate, to ask for admission
into his room. Prince Murat undertook
the task, but to his repeated knocks and
calls no answer was returned. After half
an hour they broke open the door, and
found Napoleon lying on the sofa in a
deep faint. Two physicians were immed
iately fetched, and they succeeded, after
the lapse of an hour, in bringing Napo
leon to himself. Everything here points
to an attempt at suicide, to which, of
,course, the officials will not agree. The
commandant made his appearanee at a still
later hour in the castle, which was in a
state of the greatest confusion. The Gov
ernor did not leave till morning, and has
sent a long account of the matter to the
headquarters. The whole population of
Cassel went ont*day to Wilhelmshole to
see Napoleon, lie, however, fn conse
quence of sever illness, "kept his .room."
The Prase evidently, and it would appear
with reason, disbelieves the whole story.
It remarks that, , after Sedan, there is
scarcely any bad news which could effect
the Emperor so severely,
