CONNECTICUT ELECTION.—The elec tion on Monday, from the latest news, resulted in the re-election of English, Demoorat, for Governor, by proba bly a decreased majority. TILE SHERIFEALTY.—ThO Office of Sheriff of this county is no small affair, as is well evinced by the number of eager candidates whom wo understand are making every ondeavor.in receive tho nomination of the Reptlblican par ty. Twenty-- aspirants, and perhaps more! Ye honest voter:, what f;l6 . yon think of it. If :you wore all like us, you would no doubt think as wo do, and wo know we are right when wo say that out of this stall number there will be. only oncWho will receive the nomination, no matter what may be the spirit of the contest. What, may wo ask, is to come of our• Legislators, our PrOthonotaries, our Registors, if all our Office sectors aro going to lay claim to one offloo ? Will we turn all the rest of the offices into Sheriffs, in order to satisfy this host, or will we abolish the office of Sheriff entirely, in order•to save the aspirants from do feat and disappointment 7 As either proposition is out of tho question, of course we Will have to wait until the Convention assembles, and then, like MicaWber, see what will turn up. If. we had the powerwe would make all of them Sheriffs, bit gentlemen, this is impossible; but Nvle would kindly ad vise none of you'. to build too high hopes upon your success; but like good citizens await your chances, and in the meantime,- secure a situation in some other pursuit, so that if you are disap pointed you will taro something, to fall back upon. ..,•,; Poor. limn AccOuprs.--We find in an oxchango tho following, showing the population of goveral . counties in the State including our own, and the amount of money • paid last.' y.car f by each for _the maintonanco of their re spective Poor House establishments : COUNTY. • POPULATION.

A, TERRIBLE 140T.---111t01 I igenc o reached. the - city Wednesday evening that a desperate riot w Ae ut, the coal mines of .1 - olin & Son, at Pine Run, on the Monongahela riv er, three ‘miles above McKeesport.— The first intimation of ,the riot was received by the Mayor, who was Lein graphed to send • up iihmediately : ton or twelve policeman And the Coroner. Chief, Green enrolled thirty mon who were properly Armed and drilled for the encounter they would probably be engaged in, but previous to,tho limo for. the departure of, the train,. a . tele, gram ,was .received - ,istatieg that the services of the police, would not be needed last, night, as t .tho, rioters had diSP9rse4 , . Relative to the origin of the riot, it seems that some time ago - the miners in the employ of Mr. O'Neill & Son Struck ford certain-rate of wages. Af ter holding - out until yesterday they returned to Work, which so exaspera ted the millers in- the neighboring works - that they determined to corn, poi them to quit labor and hold out.-- Witb,this object in view some two hundied mon from the neighborhood of Six Milo Ferry arrived about noon yesterday*, O'Noill's works, armed with- clip. They..called upon the minors to come out and cease work.— Their demand was refused by : Mr. O'- Neill and his men, and a collision en sued between the parties. Mr,, O'Neill and his men were armed ,in anticipa tion of the trouble, and - at the onset of the rioters discharged their .weapono at them; killing ono man, and wound ing five, only ono of . the latter, how ever, seriously. In he melee 141 r. O'- Neill was severely, but not.dangerous ly wounded by .blows ,from clubs. Having met with a N . var - mor reception than they anticipated, aad not caring to prolong the fight with clubs against powder and lead, the mob•dispersed. After rioters had .left, Mr. O'Neill was reinforced from the neighborhood, and last night himself . and , property was guarded by ono hundred armed men. His son will be in the city to day, and make an information before Mayor Blaekmore against the rioters,' when a,sufficient armed force, will: be sent up. for their., arrest.—Pittsburg Commerafal. Perhaps some persons may think it not a little strange that two influential Romin'Ootholic papers of the Demo cratic 'Peisnaskin politically- ono in New York, the other in Cincinnati- 7. shenld - within - the last ! few days have come out for Mr. : Chase 'for presickoit. With Mein, not as . cortain jour nals which havil proposed Mr. Otiose more in derision than earnest, they ap pear to be catirely sincere, a fact which, while there is- not the least likelihood of the Democracy adopting Mr. Chase, proves that really there is something at the bottom of the, idea. The fact denotes liberality in another respect— Mr. Chase being a loading Methodist. Says a New York letter : In the event of the removal of the Pre'sident Mr. Seward writes to' his friends here, so I am informed, that ho will at MI6 leave the Cabinet. In Wall street, Mr. McCullough's friends are in doubt as to his course, in the_ Same contingency, but those of them who sustain the clo sest business relations with him, ap pear to be pretty confident that he like wise will resign hiS place. Horace Greely is confidently spoken of as Mr. Randall's sucriessior in the Postoffice Department. Report in the Untested Election Case, Mr. Landon, from the committee se looted to try the contested election case of Robison vs. Shugart, made the following report, viz : In the matter of the contested elec tion in-the Twenty-first Senatorial dis trict, the select committee present .the ,following report : The last election returns gave Sam'l T. Shugart, the Democratic candidate 14,124 votes, and John K. Robison, the Republican candidate, 14,102 votes, 1 the first mentioned, therefore, having twenty-two (22) majority, claimed and I was accorded a seat in the Senate. The election is contested by the said Robison, upon the ground of fraudulent and, illegal voting upon the day of election, claiming that if all illegal and unauthorized votes be excluded from the count, that ho and not the sitting member would be clearly and positive. ly entitled to tho seat. Your committee was drawn on the 9th day of January, 1868. They met on the same day and organized; H. B. Swoops and John Cessna appearing as counsel for the contestant, and Hon. John Maynard, Wm. H. Miller and John H. Orvis, Esq., for the sitting member. The committee has met daily, as required by law, and during most of the time have held two meet ings per day. Ono hundred and sev enty-six (178), witnesses were called and heard on the part of the petitioner and contestants, , during a period of three weeks, two hundred and fear witnesses on the part of the ,respon dent, during a period of six weeks, making the total number of witnesses examined three hundred and eighty. The business sessions of the com mittee wore hold at the capitol except one, when a meeting was held in Wilkesbarre, Luzerne county, for the examination of the naturalization re cords of that county, for the purpose of ferreting out certain alleged natur alization frauds claimed to have -origi nated in that locality. A minute analysis of the vast =1 of evidence taken would be tedious and unnecessary in this, report. The nommittee_presents herein the promi nent and determining facts of the case without elaborating details, only add ing in,their own behalf that they have performed the duty assigned them with all possible industry and 'care, and present this conclusion• of their protracted labors -free from partisan bias upon - their candor and sworn • The counsel for the respondent have earnestly. contended that the whole Of Taylor township, in the county of Centre, should be thrown out, for the reason, as they. allsge, that it _was not held at the place fixed by law. In this township, the contestant had eighteen majority.. It seems that by an act of Assembly in 1848, it was provided that the election in, Taylor township, in the county of Centro, should be hold at the school house near Hannah Fur mice. In August, 1856, a petition of the citizens of the township was pre sented to the court of quarter sessions of the county, setting forth that the school house near Hannah Furnace, where the election was appointed by law to be held, had been removed, and praying the court to order the election -to be beld-Rty-nuothur-onnei-ur anther. izo an election to be held in the town ship, for the purpose of fixing a place at which to hold the general election, On the back of this petition the court endorsed an order, fixing Friday, the 26th of September, as the day for hold ing au election in the township, for the purpose of determining where the general election should be held. This order was made on the 25th day of August, 1850. A paper was produced by the prothonotary which he states he found in his office, but which is not marked filed, purporting to bo the re turn of the election so authorized by the court. This paper shows for the house of William' Adanis, fourteen votes; for the Henderson school house, five votes; and for the Hannah school house, three votes. No action seems ever to have been taken upoici it by the court. No order or 'decree was ever made fixing the house of Wiliam Adams as the place of holding', the election. The parol proof in this ease showed that the election was held for a while at the house of Wm. Adams'; that it was transferred in some man ner from there to a wagon-maker shop on land of Thomas Merryman, about the year 1860; that in the fall of 1860 the wagon-maker shop was torn down, and Thomas Merryman forbid the offi cers from holding any more elections on his premises; that they went to the nearest school houie (the Henderson school house, one and a half mile dis tant from Morryman's,) ' whore they held the spring election in_ 1867, and also the full election, which we aro asked to decide invalid. With out a further statement' of facts, the committee excludes this poll from the election returns, which , deducts eigh teen votes from the returned vote for Tim K. Robison... The respondent claims to have prov ed sixty-eight illegal' scattering votes cast - for the contestant, comprising minors, non-residents and non-tax pay mil- This being the whole number claimed; the committee allows the full number and deducts the same from the vote of John K. Robison.. - .Both : parties have proved a' large number of deierter votes. The de fense claims that this whole questiOn should be ignored. Without stating tho argument, in the case and realiz ing the .difficulties gathering about, the subject, the _committee accede 'to - the claim, and leaVe this class of voters where the general election returns have placed them, without expressing any opinion upon the legal questions in volved in the Matter. The returns from Carbon township, Huntingdon county, give the sitting member sixty-five majority.' This the committee exclude from the count, for the following reasons : :1. Because the election was improp -orly held. It, was in a . hotel; there was a crowd around the table upon which the ballots were being deposit ed, and a great deal of disorder while the tickets wore, being counted. At one time during' the day the whole board, except one inspector, was ab sent, and ho continued taking votes, recoving, among others, the vote of one William Plumb, an unnaturalized foreigner. 2. Because there was no certificate of the oaths of the - officers filed in the prothonotary's office, as required by law. 3. Because when the ballot box was opened. in the presence of the commit tee, it was found to contain newspa pers, old election returns, pamplet laws, &c., but no tickets and no list of taxables. 4. Because a certified copy of the list of taxables from - the commission er's office showed that forty-one names on the list of voters were not on the assessment, and in the absence of the list of taxableg frona-the ballot box, it was impossible to ascertain how or why these persons - were permitted to vote. Tho committee are of opinion that the irregularities surrounding this election aro of so gross and flagrant a kind as to render . it impossible to as certain what Was the true expression of the pdpular will. One of the material allegations of the petitioners was that a gross fraud had been perpetrated" in the borough of Phillipsburg and in Rush township, in the county of - Centre. 'ln - support of this charge, the following facts and circumstances were relied on : That about twelve days previous to the election Irish • railroad hands, to the number of eighty' and . upwards, were sent from the unfinished work hi Clearfield county, to Phillipsburg and Rush township, in Centre county, ostensibly for the purpose 'of comple ting about forty rods of road on the Centre county side of the line; that these men, instead of being boarded at the shanties, erected for that purpose, in proximity to the work on the Clear- - field side of the line, whore quartered at the hotels in' Phillipsburg and Rush township ; that they wore illegally as sessed before they came into the dis trict, from lists furnished the assessors by one Mark Leddy, as boss on the railroad; that it was expressly said by James Collins, one.of the contractors, and Richard O'Gormon, his foreman, when the mon were ordered to Phil lipsburg, that theY.were - sent there to vote and carry the district for the De mocratic ticket; and they did vote, litiving been brought up to the polls by Leddy and Sheriff Perks, who furnished the special tickets that had been printed and prepared for the purpose; that thirty-seven of these tickets wore found in the Phillipsburg .box, and twenty.,sevea in the box of Rush township.; tba . t they voted on forged mitUralization papers, purport ing to be issued by the court of com mon pleas of Luzerne county; that these paper's word shoWn. to be forged by an examination of the records of the court, madp'hy the committee, and clear proof that similar papere,boaring the seal of the ,court, and purporting to be signed by.M.l. Philbin, the pro thonotary, were strewn all over _Lu zern° county, to be, obtained for the asking'; and that immediately after having thus voted, these men return ed to Clearfield county, all of thorn having left the hotels in Phillipsburg and Rush township, within four days after, the election. All those facts, with many corrobbrating circumstan ces, were clearly' established, to the satisfaction of the,committee, by evi dence too voluminous to he recited in this respect. It was shownby the inspector and clerk of the election that at least thir ty-three of these fraudulent votes were received and included in the return in too - b - oTeiight rhitlipsh - urg. The com mittee are fully satisfied that these thirty-three votes should be deducted from the number returned for the sit tin.. member. In Rush township, the number of those fraudulent votes actually. receiv ed and counted could not be ascertain ed from the evidence. For this and other reasons, .the. contestant claims that the whole vote of Rush, township should be thrown, out, and ,excluded from the return, Ile bases this claim on the following facts : 1. Becanse'the' beard, which was en tirely of one party, was not legally constituted, the only officer elected by the people being the judge; both the inspectors .being .deserters, and having been appointed improperlyby thojudgo, out of the same political party, and not in accordance with the provisions of the law regulating elections. 2. That the election was improperly conducted, the house being open all day, the collector sitting , at the table with the ballot box upon • receiving taxes with a largo crowd'arounct and a largo number of persons in the room when the votes were being coun ted off. 3. That no list of taxables wasfound in the ballot. box, and no record was kept or produced to show how many persons voted. 4. That a large number Of votes was received from persons with forged naturalization papers, only one of whom was sworn, and when they were challenged, the challenges were' die. regarded; that it Was impossible, un der the circumstances, to ascertain what was the truo• expression• of the popular will. The committee are un able to determine how many illegal votes were received and counted in this township, the respondent having failed to call before thorn either the in spectors or clerks of the election, and no record having been found in the ballot box, as required by law. When it had been show on the part of the con testant, that fraudulent votes had been received, that the officers absolutely refused to discharge their sworn duty, and admitted every vote offered in spite' of remonstrances and challenges, the integrity of the return was at once destroyed. The committee is constrained, there fore,, to exclude from the count the whole vote of Bush township, which gave fifty-ono inajhrity for the sitting member." This hasty review - of 'tho prominent facts, put in a condensed recapitulation, stands thus: The original election returns gave Samuel T. Shugart - 14,124 At Phillipsburg ... . . 33 Rush township • 51 Miscellaneous illegal,votes, es ' elusive Of deserters' votbe 23 Carbon township! The general election rettiiciti gaVe John K.

THE IMPEACHMENT. WASHINGTON, April 1, 1888.—The Republicans are well satisfied with the progress and .character of the day's proceedings in the trial. The legisla tion in both branches is practically sus pended. The House met at noon, and dispensing with the reading, after a few sentences of the journal, went ita mediatly over to the Senate. The at tendance of members is daily decreas ing. At the opening of the trial lir. Sumner obtained the sense of the Sen ate on the question Of the right of Chief Justice to vote when the Senate was equally divided, which was decid ed in favor of Mr: Chase by 26 to 21. The counsel for the President labored strenuously to have the various con= vorsations of Thomas ruled out, but in alt eases they Were overruled either by the Chief Justice or the Senatd. Mr. *rleigh of Daltotah, finished his testimony begun= - yesterday by re lating that Thomas had declared that ho should use force to get into the War Department if necessary, and after wards that his arrest by. civil authori ties alone had prevented him. Stan bery's Cross-examination of 'this wit ness was of a higher order than that of yesterday. Samuel Wilkinson; thc:well-known journalist, gives a very clear account of an interview with Thomas and the statements Of the latter on two occa sions that, be-should call on Grant for troops, and that ho did not see how Grant could refuse. Evidence was at tentively listened to by all present, and the examination. of the next witness gave rise to continued and' violent laughter on all sides.- A Mid h.Provoking Witneso Mr. Icaraner, of Delawarp, is one of the large, farmers ',ef•that State,."a Del aware bby," ag,he termed . himself, though some forty-fiVe years old..

Thom as in the east roomitelling him the eyes of Delaware'weite,on him,:and his re lating it all afterward to-a man named Smith, and whose " first name was not John but William, was droll to the last degree. The Chief Justiedi laughed till he shook. Counsel laughed. The Man agers put their heads down . on the ta• ble and laughed till "the tumblers rat tled on it. Senators held their'Sides and laughed-, -th - e gallerioa responded heartily,,and in fact the whole •audi mace, official and unofficial, filling the inside of the chamber, shook till the old comparision to a bowl of jelly was quite applicable to the audience as a It isosafe to say there-has nev er been such general and long contin ued laughter in the Senate chamber before.
